The true incidence of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in US athletes is unknown. Current estimates are based largely on case identification through public media reports and estimated participation rates. purpose this study was to more precisely estimate the SCD National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) student-athletes assess accuracy traditional methods for collecting data SCD.From January 2004 December 2008, all cases NCAA were identified by use an database, weekly systematic search...
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is the leading cause of mortality in athletes during sport. A variety mostly hereditary, structural or electrical disorders are associated with SCD young athletes, majority which can be identified suggested by abnormalities on a resting 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG). Whether used for diagnostic screening purposes, physicians responsible cardiovascular care should knowledgeable and competent ECG interpretation athletes. However, most countries shortage physician...

Cardiac involvement among hospitalized patients with severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is common and associated adverse outcomes. This study aimed to determine the prevalence clinical implications of COVID-19 cardiac in young competitive athletes.In this prospective, multicenter, observational cohort data from 42 colleges universities, we assessed prevalence, characteristics, outcomes collegiate athletes United States. Data were collected September 1, 2020, December 31, 2020. The...
The "2024 AHA/ACC/AMSSM/HRS/PACES/SCMR Guideline for the Management of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy" provides recommendations to guide clinicians in management patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
BACKGROUND: Understanding the incidence, causes, and trends of sudden cardiac death (SCD) among young competitive athletes is critical to inform preventive policies. METHODS: This study included National Collegiate Athletic Association athlete deaths during a 20-year time frame (July 1, 2002, through June 30, 2022). Athlete were identified 4 separate independent databases search strategies (National resolutions list, Parent Heart Watch database media reports, Center for Catastrophic Sports...
The pathogenesis of sudden cardiac death in college athletes has not been defined by systematic case identification.A total 45 cases were identified National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) from 2004 to 2008 based on an internal reporting system and review media reports. Autopsy reports reviewed adjudicated a multidisciplinary panel. Cause could be reasonably determined 36 cases; 3 had no autopsy, 5 autopsy obtained, 1 insufficient information determine cause death. most common...
Cardiovascular screening in young athletes is widely recommended and routinely performed prior to participation competitive sports. While there general agreement that early detection of cardiac conditions at risk for sudden arrest death (SCA/D) an important objective, the optimal strategy cardiovascular remains issue considerable debate. At centre controversy addition a resting ECG standard preparticipation evaluation using history physical examination. The American Medical Society Sports...
Background This study examines sickle cell trait (SCT) as a cause of sudden death in National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) athletes and explores the cost-effectiveness different screening models. Methods The authors reviewed all cases NCAA student-athletes from January 2004 through December 2008. also explored for this condition selected populations assuming that identifying with SCT would prevent death. Results There were 273 deaths total 1 969 663 athlete-participant-years. Five...
Background: The National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) has recently highlighted mental health concerns in student athletes, though the incidence of suicide among NCAA athletes is unclear. purpose this study was to determine rate athletes. Hypothesis: differs by sex, race, sport, and division. Study Design: Retrospective cohort study. Level Evidence: 3. Methods: Memorial Resolutions list published demographic data were used identify student-athlete deaths total participant seasons...
Background This study compares the accuracy of cardiovascular screening in active adolescents and young adults using a standardised history, physical examination resting 12-lead ECG. Methods Participants were prospectively screened questionnaire based on Pre-participation Physical Evaluation Monograph 4th Edition (PPE-4), ECG interpreted modern standards. with abnormal findings had focused echocardiography further evaluation. Primary outcomes included disorders associated sudden cardiac...

Interpretation of ECGs in athletes is complicated by physiological changes related to training. The purpose this study was determine the accuracy ECG interpretation among different physician specialties, with and without use a standised criteria tool.Physicians were asked interpret 40 (28 normal from college randomised 12 abnormal individuals known ciovascular pathology) classify each as (1) 'normal or variant--no further evaluation testing needed' (2) 'abnormal--further needed.' After...
Background Research on high school soccer injury epidemiology is sparse. Aim To describe rates, trends and patterns by type of athlete exposure (AE), position sex. Methods This descriptive epidemiological study used data from a large national sports surveillance programme to rates soccer-related injuries including concussion sustained 2005/2006 2013/2014. Injury are calculated per 1000 AEs. Results Overall, 6154 occurred during 2 985 991 AEs; rate=2.06 were higher competition (4.42) than...
