Abstract: Background: The peak velocity of early diastolic mitral annular motion (e`) is believed to provide sensitive detection of left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), but other aspects of LV long-axis function in HCM have received less attention. Systolic mitral annular excursion (SExc) is also reduced in HCM and must be an intrinsic limitation to the extent of the subsequent motion during diastole. However, the effects of HCM on excursion during early diastole (EDExc) and atrial contraction (AExc), the duration of early diastolic motion (EDDur), and the relationships of EDExc with SExc, and of e`with EDExc and EDDur, are all unknown. Methods: The study group was 22 subjects with HCM and there were 22 age and sex matched control subjects. SExc, EDExc, e`, AExc and EDDur were measured from pulsed wave tissue Doppler signals acquired from the septal and lateral walls. In the combined group of HCM and control subjects, multivariate analyses were performed to identify independent predictors of EDExc and e`for both LV walls. Results: SExc, EDExc and e`were all lower, and EDDur was longer in the HCM group compared to the control group for both LV walls (p
