Abstract:Cardiomyopathy is characterized by structural and functional abnormalities in the heart muscle that are not influenced by coronary disease, hypertension, valve disease, or congenital heart defects. Genetic testing, which helps diagnose the molecular bases of cardiomyopathy, can affect prognostication and clinical decisions. Recent guidelines advocate classifying cardiomyopathies based on phenotypic categories, which encompass a range of clinical presentations, underlying causes, and outcomes.
