About the trial

What the trial wants to find out

The study aims to assess the prevalence of ventricular rhythmic disorder after an acute myocarditis in sportsmen.

Read full original descriptionShow less

50 patients with acute myocarditis, confirmed by MRI, will be assessed by ECG Holter and Treadmill stress test during a 1-year follow-up.

The group in the trial

  • To establish the rhythmic load of sports patients at a distance from a first episode of myocarditis.Other group

    Stress testing and 24-hour Holter ECG are the tools currently recommended for assessing rhythmic load and, consequently rhythmic risk. These investigations will be perform at 1 years after myocardite.

    Treatment: Treadmill Stress test
