Recommendations for<br />
participation in athletic activities<br />
C<strong>and</strong>idates with unequivocal diagnosis of HCM who are<br />
>35 year of age <strong>and</strong> have no risk factors (e.g., family<br />
history of sudden death, syncope, sustained or nonsustained<br />
ventricular tachycardia, marked left ventricular<br />
hypertrophy, left ventricular outflow gradient >50 mmHg,<br />
exercise-induced ischemia or hypotension, <strong>and</strong> carriers<br />
of certain high-risk genes) may reasonably be considered<br />
at low risk for sudden cardiac death. In selected subjects,<br />
participation in mild to moderate athletic activities<br />
(Classes IA, IB, <strong>and</strong> IIA) may be allowed, as long as<br />
periodic evaluations are done at least once a year.
