As issued by the authors

  1. Personalized therapy based on: (1) identification of the specific cardiac pathophysiology; (2) determination of the root cause so that, if applicable, cause-specific treatment can occur (precision medicine); (3) therapies based on the patient's clinical milieu

  2. Clinical milieus: at risk (phenotype negative), asymptomatic (phenotype positive), symptomatic, and end-stage cardiomyopathy

  3. Special emphasis on cause-specific therapies in children for prevention and attenuation of cardiomyopathy in addition to symptomatic treatments
