Prevalence of positive ECG criteria in young competitive athletes: a single region experience.
I read the article by Leber et al. with great interest. However, in my opinion, the clinical implications presented are unacceptable.

متن کاملAccuracy of ECG interpretation in competitive athletes: the impact of using standised ECG criteria.
BACKGROUND Interpretation of ECGs in athletes is complicated by physiological changes related to training. The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy of ECG interpretation in athletes among different physician specialties, with and without use of a standised ECG criteria tool.

متن کاملPreparticipation screening for cardiovascular abnormalities in young competitive athletes.
The cardiovascular benefits of regular physical exercise are well established.However, a small proportion of young (≤35 years) athletes with unsuspected heart disease are at increased risk of exercise related sudden cardiac death. The majority of such deaths are attributable to cardiac anomalies, most of which can be identified during life. A range of therapeutic strategies can be implemented t...
متن کاملRisk of competitive sport in young athletes with heart disease.

The evaluation of every athlete regarding underlying cardiac disease is impractical and therefore needs to be targeted at those who are at a higher risk. A practical approach would be to channel efforts towards athletes with cardiac symptoms, those with a family history of ...
