Risk stratification and exercise recommendations in cardiomyopathies and channelopathies: a practical guide for the multidisciplinary team
Read the full research here Joyee Basu, Hamish MacLachlan, Raghav Bhatia, Helen Alexander, Robert Cooper, Nabeel Sheikh. Heart. Exercise offers a plethora of health benefits. However, certain genetic and acquired diseases such as cardiomyopathies and channelopathies are associated with sudden cardiac death during exercise. Several factors complicate exercise prescription in individuals living with these conditions. The lack of high-quality evidence […]
