| Abstract: | Introduction: Genetic testing in cardiomyopathy is now recommended by most scientific societies. It is useful for phenotypical characterisation, risk stratification and genetic segregation. Current guidelines recommend a comprehensive evaluation on all genotype positive (G+) phenotype negative (P-) that should also include advanced cardiac imaging. The role of exercise testing in those with pre-clinical disease has never been explored. Objective: The main objective of this study was to evaluate cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) data in G+ P- individuals. Only those with a cardiomyopathy gene would be included. |
