Why are women less likely to suffer
#SCD
in sport? Women participate in equal numbers to men in sport. As a female sports cardiologist I often ponder is it our genes, hormones or are we simply the superior species! More studies needed - female athletes heart

Great turnout! Key Messages 1. CMR for athletes heart vs cardiomyopathy 2. CMR for ECG changes with a normal echo 3. CMR for high pre-test probability of myocarditis

Myocardial ischaemia testing in athletes 🤔 Key Gems: 1) Athletes don’t present with C.P. 2) Check for lack of Fitness 3)Athletes have good coronary reserve, big ventricles and ⬆️⬆️ C.O 4) myocardial reserve much higher in athletes

Don’t forget to exercise to maximum target heart rate. Great for assessment of symptoms and risk evaluation
@FlavioDascenzi
1. Don’t discuss sports after ICD implantation: the optimal timing is before
2. No blanket statements - no competitive sports
3.Choose the right ICD for your athlete
4. Take into account the underlying disease/interaction with sports

We often see prominent trabeculation on CMR, let’s not forget to assess the other features of LVNC including a thinned compacted myocardium, irregular endocardial surface, impaired LV function and scar. It’s not just about the ratio

Diabetes and kidney disease: 1. Measure eGFR and albumin creatinine ratio. 2. Start an SGLT2 inhibitor irrespective of DM 3. GLP-1RA to help weight reduction 4. Finerenone for CVD and kidney disease. These are gems

We should consider the risks of not playing sport vs that of playing when reviewing individuals with heart disease. It’s all about shared decision making. Let’s recommend level of activity based on objectively obtained data

Invited to the House of Lords to discuss the cardiac aspects of human enhancement. How can we make the ordinary extraordinary? Will we get to an era of the super-charged engine (heart). Perhaps it might just be possible.
