Description
Professor Jon Drezner emphasises the need for careful planning and practice of emergency protocols in the sports medicine setting. He also shares the new criteria for ECG screening - these lead to a much lower false positive rate than was previously reported. He makes a compelling case to include a resting 12-lead ECG in the periodic health examination of athletes.
In this podcast he previews the international collaboration to improve the criteria for interpreting ECGs in athletes. These ‘Seattle criteria’ will be shared for free world-wide via BMJ Learning though sponsorship by numerous stakeholders including FIFA, AMSSM, PACES and ESC.
