Sudden cardiac death in athletes: big trouble, not so little Asia

(Plötzlicher Herztod bei Sportlern: großer Ärger, nicht so Kleinasien)

The review by Dr. Halabchi, et al is an excellent summary and reiteration of the importance of the addition of ECG screening to the pre-participation exam (PPE) for athletic competition. To pioneer this campaign in Asia, is a noble endeavor and is no small feat. As highlighted by this review, the general consensus for enforcing ECG as a requisite for participation varies greatly by the governing bodies making the suggestions and the demographic which they represent.
