Description
Stefanos Sakellaropoulos and co-authors argue that a breathing pattern seen in exercise tests deserves a place among the warning signs for sudden death in thickened-heart disease. In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, the heart muscle grows too thick, and doctors already weigh a list of risk factors when judging who needs protection. Their 2025 review focuses on exercise oscillatory ventilation, a waxing-and-waning breathing rhythm picked up during cardiopulmonary exercise testing.
That rhythm is already counted among the strongest signs of poor outlook in heart failure, whether the heart pumps weakly or, as here, stays strong. Since this disease mimics heart failure with preserved pumping, the authors reason the sign may carry the same weight. Their short review gathers what is known about the pattern in this condition. They present it as a candidate risk factor to test in future outcome studies.
