Abstract
Sudden cardiac death is rare, however the lives of some young athletes are lost prematurely due to cardiovascular dieseases that are detectable during life. It is on this premise that the European Society of Cardiology endorses cardiovascular screening of young athletes using the 12 lead ECG. This review will describe the spectrum of normal ECG patterns in athletes. the impact of demographic factors and sporting intensity on these patterns and define the abnormal ECG findings that warrant further investigation.
