To establish comprehensive clinical recommendations for safe participation in competitive, amateur, and recreational sports among individuals with cardiomyopathies, myocarditis, or pericarditis.
Convened an expert panel appointed by the European Society of Cardiology to review clinical insights and existing evidence on exercise-induced cardiac risks.
Synthesized recommendations addressing competitive sports, amateur athletics, and leisure-time physical activities for patients with HCM, DCM, ARVC, and myopericarditis.
Delivered clinical guidance balancing the documented benefits of regular exercise against the risk of acute cardiac events and exercise-related sudden death.
Provided stratified activity recommendations based on specific cardiomyopathy subtype, disease severity, and the physiological demands of various sports.
