Arrhythmic Events in Sports Medicine and Kinesiology
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Focusing on arrhythmias in athletes has been of wide interest since the origins of sports medicine. Despite the fact that elite athletes are the major class of interest for high risk sudden death, many other categories of subjects are now considered in global arrhythmic evaluation.
As consequence of the fact that the general population practices sport, the importance of investigating this aspect in depth is fundamental. The real significance of arrhythmic events, as well the principal causes, are well known in cardiology; however, the frequent absence of structural cardiopathies offers many points of discussion.
The aim of this Special Issue is to invite everyone who has experience in this field to contribute to highlight the specific topics of some known or lesser-known aspects.
Dr. Laura Stefani
