Resting ECG in the sudden death prognosis in the population of professional sportsmen Review article
Main Article Content
Abstract
Sudden cardiac death in athletes’ population is an important issue, as well very difficult and interesting problem from clinical and social point of view. In this article authors analyze some important aspects, where they refer them to the role of resting electrocardiogram in prognosis of sudden cardiac death.
