Description
Summary:Abstract Participation in regular moderate aerobic physical activity and increased physical tness is associated with a decrease in cardiovascular mortality, which is aer the age of 35 most oen due to coronary events. On the other hand, moderate and vigorous physical exertion is associated with an increased risk for cardiac events, including sudden cardiac death in individuals harbouring cardiovascular disease. The risk-benet ratio may dier in relation to the individuals age, tness level and the presence and type of cardiovascular disease. The latest position stand of the European association of Cardiovascular Prevention and Rehabilitation on cardiovascular evaluation in middle aged/senior individuals, who are contemplating exercise or who are already engaged in non-professional competitive or recreational leisure sporting activity, is presented in the article. The aim of recommendations is to evaluate and encourage as many individuals as possible to participate in regular physical activity while minimizing the risk of cardiovascular adverse events.
