Abstract

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) of an athlete is a very tragic event. When it concerns a well-known elite sportsman, it creates much publicity. Inevitably questions are raised about the health-promoting value of sports and the necessity of a mandatory periodical cardiovascular screening to prevent sports-related cardiac events. In order to answer the final question many aspects of SCD and screening in general have to be addressed.
