The Cardiomyopathy Registry of the EURObservational Research Programme of the European Society of Cardiology: baseline data and contemporary management of adult patients with cardiomyopathies. Eur Heart J. 2018 May 21;39(20):1784-1793http://hdl.handle.net/10668/12058The Cardiomyopathy Registry of the EURObservational Research Programme is a prospective, observational, and multinational registry of consecutive patients with four cardiomyopathy subtypes: hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), and restrictive cardiomyopathy (RCM). We report the baseline characteristics and management of adults enrolled in the registry. A total of 3208 patients were enrolled by 69 centres in 18 countries [HCM (n = 1739); DCM (n = 1260); ARVC (n = 143); and RCM (n = 66)]. Differences between cardiomyopathy subtypes (P  By providing contemporary observational data on characteristics and management of patients with cardiomyopathies, the registry provides a platform for the evaluation of guideline implementation. Potential gaps with existing recommendations are discussed as well as some suggestions for improvement of health care provision in Europe.enValorLangDefibrillatorsCardiomyopathy, RestrictiveAdultAge FactorsArrhythmogenic Right Ventricular DysplasiaCardiomyopathiesCardiomyopathy, DilatedCardiomyopathy, HypertrophicCardiomyopathy, RestrictiveDefibrillatorsDisease ManagementEuropeFemaleHumansMagnetic Resonance ImagingMaleMiddle AgedProspective StudiesRegistriesresearch article29378019restricted accessAdultAge FactorsArrhythmogenic Right Ventricular DysplasiaCardiomyopathiesCardiomyopathy, DilatedCardiomyopathy, Hypertrophic10.1093/eurheartj/ehx8191522-9645https://academic.oup.com/eurheartj/article-pdf/39/20/1784/24836597/ehx819.pdf
