Updated Recommendations for Athletes with Heart Disease.
Annual Review of Medicine 2018 January 30
Professional society recommendations to decrease sudden cardiac death in athletes, including eligibility requirements with disqualification for athletes with diagnosed disease as well as preparticipation screening and emergency preparedness, were updated in 2015. The update includes new sections on aortic disease, channelopathies, and sickle cell trait, as well as a change in format from the previous binary yes/no format to the more nuanced and contemporary "class and level of evidence" format. Eighty-four of the 246 recommendations now carry Class II designation-"reasonable," or "may be considered." New language in the document emphasizes counseling as part of the decision process. New data on athletes with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators, and on those with long QT syndrome, have led to a change from blanket restriction of competitive sports participation to a Class IIB "may be considered" recommendation.
