Predictive value of exercise testing in athletes with ventricular ectopy evaluated by cardiac magnetic resonance
Heart Rhythm Sep 04, 2018
Cipriani A, et al. - Researchers evaluated the prevalence and determinants of abnormal cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) findings in athletes (aged 15-50 years-old) referred for EIVA vs non-EIVA with negative or inconclusive echocardiography. According to findings, athletes with EIVA vs those with non-EIVA significantly more often had pathological myocardial substrates on CMR. The identification of the subgroup of athletes with the highest probability of CMR abnormalities was possible by taking into account repolarization abnormalities on baseline ECG and complex EIVA with a right-bundle-branch-block or polymorphic morphology.
