Definition Epidemiology Incidence in athletes 35 yrs old is 0.6 to 3.6 per 100,000 population per year 10-fold greater risk in males compared to females The risk of SCD is greater in athletes >35 yrs old Adolescent and young adults involved in sports activity have an estimated risk of SCD that is 2.8 times greater than that of their nonathletic counterparts JACC Cardiovasc Imaging. 2013;6:993-1007 Card Electrophysiol Clin 5 (2013) 13 21

Trends in Sudden Cardiovascular Death in Young Competitive Athletes After Implementation of a Preparticipation Screening Program in Veneto prescreening period early screening period late screening period RR of SCD 44% lower RR of SCD 79% lower The annual incidence of SCD in athletes decreased by 89%, from 3.6 per 100,000 person-years during the prescreening period to 0.4 per 100,000 person-years during the late screening period Mortality reduction was predominantly due to a lower incidence of sudden death from cardiomyopathies JAMA 2006;296:1596

University athletes (n=508) underwent routine medical history/physical examination and ECG before athletic participation Application of the 2010 ESC criteria, compared with the 2005 criteria, reduced the number of participants with abnormal ECG findings from 83/508 (16.3%) to 49/508 (9.6%) Heart 2011;97:1573e1577

785 athletes (73% males, 46.8±7.3 years) were enrolled over a 13-month period. 14.3% required additional examinations: 5.1% because of abnormal ECG, 4.7% due to physical examination, 4.1% because of high cardiovascular risk and 1.6% due to medical history. A new cardiovascular abnormality was established in 2.8% of athletes Conclusions: Cardiovascular evaluation of middle-aged athletes detected a new cardiovascular abnormality in about 3% of participants and a high-cardiovascular risk profile in about 4% Br J Sports Med 2014;0:1 6.
