Pre-participation Cardiac Screenings
Pre-participation cardiac screenings are medical evaluations designed to identify any heart-related issues in individuals, especially athletes, before they engage in sports or strenuous physical activities. These screenings typically involve a review of medical history, physical examination, and sometimes an electrocardiogram (ECG) to check the heart's rhythm. The goal is to uncover any hidden conditions that could increase the risk of serious heart problems during exercise, helping to ensure safety and well-being for those participating in athletic activities.
