Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The importance of exercise electrocardiogram (ECG) is still controversial in the prevention of cardiac events among sportsmen. The aim of this study was to assess the relevance of exercise electrocardiogram (ECG) as a significant prognostic marker for cardiovascular events when any cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors are present.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The SEEPRED (Sport, Exercise ECG, prediction) prospective cohort study included leisure time sportsmen over 35 years old who performed exercise electrocardiogram (ECG) screening in the Sports Medicine Unit of the University Hospital of Saint-Etienne from September 2011 to April 2016. Personal, familial history and physical examination were systematically performed before maximal exercise electrocardiogram (ECG). Cardiovascular events and changes in physical activity were searched after exercise electrocardiogram (ECG).
