About
The “must-attend” event for anyone involved in exercise cardiology!
Welcome to the 3rd Sports Heart Summit
Increasingly we are recognising the complexity of the athletes’ heart and the effects on cardiac physiology with exercise. The nuances of this patient group and unique challenges they present have resulted in the emergence of the sports cardiologist role, as well as a more integrated role of the exercise physiologist.
Sports Cardiology not only recognizes the effects of exercise on the athlete’s heart, but also acknowledges sport as a recreation, and exercise as a therapy. The sessions dedicated to sports cardiology at international cardiac meetings are always well attended, but rarely have enough allocated time to delve into the topic as thoroughly as needed. Now is the time to rethink how we approach continuing education within this sub-specialty.
This unique event is aimed at cardiologists, exercise physiologists, physicians and researchers with an interest in sports cardiology.
