Sports heart diagnosis.
The diagnosis of a sports heart is made in the case of observing the functional characteristics in people engaged in sports training with an increased load on the heart muscle.
Regular exercise training leads to the adaptation of the heart muscle to new conditions. As a result, the volume of the left ventricle and its wall thickness increase. The impact force of the muscle tissue of the walls of the left ventricle increases, which leads to an increase in the volume of ejected blood. At the same time, the tone of the vagus nerve increases, which is reflected in a decrease in the heart rate at rest. Bradycardia develops - rare heart contractions. The heart is able to transport large volumes of blood, and therefore oxygen.
The diagnosis of a sports heart makes it possible to differentiate serious physiological disorders in the heart muscle from functional changes in the trained myocardium.
The diagnosis of an athletic heart is based on an ECG. In the process of life, a person does not have subjective complaints about the work of the heart, with the exception of bradycardia, shortness of breath. Echocardiography can distinguish cardiomyopathy from a sports heart. To clarify the diagnosis "sports heart" take a three-month break in training and measure the performance of the heart muscle.
The diagnosis of a sports heart does not require treatment, but exercise monitoring is required. It is especially important to monitor the state of health with a sports heart in young people, whose body is still in the stage of development, growth. Since all the increasing loads on the heart muscle may not make it possible to quickly adapt to the vessels and the myocardium in particular, which is dangerous with a lethal outcome.
