Echocardiographic assessment of right ventricle adaptation to endurance training in young rowers – speckle tracking echocardiography

Abstract: The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the degree of cardiorespiratory fitness and the function of the right ventricle (RV). 117 rowers, age 17.5±1.5 years. All subjects underwent cardiopulmonary exercise. Standard echocardiography and 2D speckle tracking echocardiography with evaluation of longitudinal strain in each segment of the RV (basal – RVLS-B; mid – RVLS-M, apical – RVLS-A) and global RV free-wall strain (RVLS-G) were performed. RVLS-B values were lower compared to the RVLS-M … Show more

“…The athletes participating in highly static and highly dynamic disciplines (IIIC by Mitchel et al [11]) most commonly demonstrate changes classified as "athlete's heart", including the ECG ones [20,21]. Therefore, the percentage of observed changes in the resting ECG, which require further medical assessment, can be assumed to be the highest possible.…”
