Abnormal electrocardiographic findings in athletes: recognising changes suggestive of cardiomyopathy.
Cardiomyopathies are a heterogeneous group of heart muscle diseases and collectively are the leading cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in young athletes. The 12-lead ECG is utilised as both a screening and diagnostic tool for detecting conditions associated with SCD. Fundamental to the appropriate evaluation of athletes undergoing ECG is an understanding of the ECG findings that may indicate ...
متن کاملCardiac Troponin T Response during High-Intensity Competition and its Correlation with the Corrected QT Interval among the Trained Athletes
Introduction: It is highly crucial to develop novel strategies in order to further enhance the monitoring of sudden cardiac arrest in athletes and establish standard medical care procedures to control monitoring and treatment costs. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effects of a high-intensity competition on cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and its correlation with the corrected QT interv...

in hungary, ecg is a keystone of routine athletic screening. its significance is based on simplicity, quickness and high informative value as well as the fact that appearance of pathological ecg signs can precede the formation of structural heart diseases. during screening of healthy athletes, we studied the incidence of athletic ecg changes and pathological ecg abnormalities. methods: we pe...
متن کاملThe Study of Electrocardiographic Findings in Patients with Organophosphate Poisoning
Background: Cardiac manifestations that occur in a majority of patients with organophosphate (OP) poisoning may range from innocuous electrocardiographic manifestations, such as sinus tachycardia, to life-threatening complications, including cardiogenic pulmonary edema and myocardial necrosis. In this study, we evaluated the various electrocardiographic manifestations in patients with OP pois...
متن کاملElectrocardiographic findings in male veteran endurance athletes.
Twenty male veteran endurance runners and 20 controls underwent resting, exercise, and ambulatory electrocardiography. Four athletes and three controls satisfied voltage criteria for left ventricular hypertrophy. The PR interval was longer in the athletes and they had longer mean (SD) treadmill exercise times (19 (4) v 16 (2) min) than the controls. Four athletes but no controls had greater tha...
