Bronx Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy Database
Sponsor: Montefiore Medical Center
Summary
Transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (ATTR-CM) is a commonly undiagnosed and potentially fatal disease. Contemporary studies on this condition often underrepresent the female gender and diverse patient populations. This registry retrospectively evaluated patients referred for 99mTc-pyrophosphate (PYP) Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) between 2014 and 2023 at Montefiore-Einstein in the Bronx. The patient population is racially and ethnically diverse and with a high proportion of females. Demographic, clinical (e.g. comorbidities), laboratory, echocardiographic, hospitalization, and mortality data were collected for each patient.
