Cardiovascular Screening for Athletes

CRC Press

Bhatia R, Marwaha S, Sharma S


This chapter explores the importance of cardiovascular screening in athletes, explaining how regular exercise improves heart health while highlighting the genetic and structural conditions—such as hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, ARVC, and long-QT syndrome—that can increase the risk of sudden cardiac events. It provides clinicians and sports professionals with a comprehensive overview of symptoms, risk factors, and public-health considerations to improve athlete safety and prevent exercise-related cardiac death.
