Review outlines ECG implementation in preparticipation screening to prevent sudden cardiac death in young athletes.
Why the study?
Sudden cardiac death in young athletes raises questions about prevention through proper medical screening including ECG implementation.
ECG screening review in young athletes warrants no practice change; leaves open optimal protocols for sudden cardiac death prevention.
Sudden cardiac death of a young athlete has a tremendous impact on the public attentiveness and the medical community as well, because it is hardly acceptable that trained and healthy individuals might die suddenly. Over the last years, questions have arisen on whether this occurrence could be prevented by a proper medical screening. This article deals with some aspects of ECG-implementation in preparticipation screening protocols.
