Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this observational study is to learn about the occurrence of various arrhythmias ( tachyarrhythmia and bradyarrhythmia ) during or after Percutaneous Intramyocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* To investigate the occurrence of various arrhythmias ( tachyarrhythmia and bradyarrhythmia ) during procedure and its relationship with clinical characteristics and procedural parameters
* To analyze the changes of 12-lead electrocardiogram and 24-hour dynamic electrocardiogram before and after Percutaneous Intramyocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation and their relationships with clinical characteristics and procedural parameters

Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy Patients underwent Liwen Procedure

Percutaneous Intramyocardial Septal Radiofrequency Ablation for hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (Liwen Procedure)

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Under transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) guidance, the puncture site is positioned at the apex. A guiding line is applied along the septal long axis and the radiofrequency ablation electrode needle(17G, Cool-tip™ RF Ablation System and Switching Controller; Medtronic, Minneapolis, MN, USA) pierced towards the hypertrophic anterior interventricular septum (AIVS) 8-10 mm from the subaortic valve. Each ablation lasts up to 12 min, and the ablation power gradually increases from 30-40W. Then, the ablation needle is withdrawn 10 mm to prepare for the next application. Overall, 3-4 applications are performed in each patient. The ablation creates an area of thermal coagulative myocardial necrosis that appears as a hyperechogenic reflection detected by TTE. If deemed necessary, we repeat the procedure at the posterior interventricular septum (PIVS).
