| Phase | N/A |
| Sponsor | University of Leicester |
| Enrollment | 40 |
| Study Type | OBSERVATIONAL |
| Conditions | Inherited Cardiac Conditions; Sudden Cardiac Arrest; Ventricular Arrhythmia; Athlete; Ventricular Fibrillation |
The goal of this observational study is to learn if two specific heart electrical signal patterns can help in detecting the risk of dangerous heart rhythms in athletes, and to see if exercise-based tests can be used instead of invasive hospital procedures to record this electrical signals.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Can special ECG action potential duration markers (R2I2 and…
