A total of 380 athletes referring before participation in sports, between April, 2014 and April, 2015, were included in this study. The mean age was 12.4 years. A screening protocol has been applied to all, including personal and family history, physical examination, 12-lead electrocardiography, transthoracic echocardiography, 24-hour rhythm Holter analysis, and treadmill exercise test. The most frequent complaints were chest pain in 19 (5%), dyspnoea in 13 (3.4%), and dizziness and fainting in five patients (1.3%) on exercise. There was sudden death and arrhythmia in 41 patients (10.7%) owing to family history. Heart murmur was present in 20 (5.2%) and hypertension in 10 patients (2.6%) on physical examination. The 12-lead electrocardiography was abnormal in 9 patients (2.4%). The findings of transthoracic echocardiography were insignificant in 47 patients (12.3%) and in five patients (1.3%) a haemodynamically important condition was detected. The 24-hour rhythm Holter analysis was abnormal in six patients (1.5%). There were significant ST changes in two patients (0.5%) on treadmill exercise test with normal findings on myocardial perfusion scans. No significant relation was present between findings of screening protocol and transthoracic echocardiography, 24-hour rhythm Holter analysis, or treadmill exercise test results.<\/jats:p><jats:p>Pre-participation screening in young athletes should consist of a targeted personal history, family history, physical examination, and 12-lead electrocardiography. Other tests should be applied only if the screening indicates the presence of a cardiovascular disease.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1017\/s1047951117002438","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,29]],"date-time":"2017-11-29T09:21:34Z","timestamp":1511947294000},"page":"536-541","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1017\/policypage","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["The pre-participation screening in young athletes: which protocol do we need exactly?"],"prefix":"10.1017","volume":"28","author":[{"given":"\u0130brahim \u0130.","family":"\u00c7etin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Filiz","family":"Ekici","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ay\u015fe E.","family":"Kibar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Murat","family":"S\u00fcr\u00fcc\u00fc","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ali","family":"Orgun","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"56","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,11,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref14","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.7326\/0003-4819-152-5-201003020-00004"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref10","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1001\/jama.296.13.1593"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref3","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/eurheartj\/ehi154"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCULATIONAHA.111.023861"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref20","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1540-8167.2003.02017.x"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref19","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1941738108330972"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref8","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2005.02.006"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref15","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hrthm.2011.04.024"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref13","first-page":"511","article-title":"Cardiovascular screening with electrocardiography and echocardiography in collegiate athletes","volume":"124","author":"Magalski","year":"2011","journal-title":"Eur Soc Cardiol"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref18","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCULATIONAHA.108.804617"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref6","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bjsports-2016-097331"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref12","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9149(99)80421-4"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref9","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1161\/CIRCULATIONAHA.107.181423"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref23","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jacc.2005.02.007"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref21","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4085\/1062-6050-48.6.05"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref22","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/bjsports-2012-091127"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref11","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJM199808063390602"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref16","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.amjcard.2014.09.011"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref2","first-page":"197","article-title":"A review of sudden cardiac death in young athletes and strategies for preparticipation cardiovascular screening","volume":"36","author":"Koester","year":"2001","journal-title":"J Athl Train"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/eurheartj\/ehp473"},{"key":"S1047951117002438_ref4","unstructured":"American Heart Association 2012, Preparticipation Cardiovascular Screening of Young Competitive Athletes: Policy Guidance.
