IVSD: interventricular septum dimension in end diastole, LVPWD: left ventricular posterior wall dimension in end diastole, LVEDD: left ventricular end-diastolic diameter, LVESD: left ventricular end-systolic diameter, LVOT: left ventricular outflow tract, and ∗>30 mmHg at rest or >50 mmHg under stress.
