Zusammenfassung

Der implantierbare Defibrillator („implantable cardioverter defibrillator“, ICD) wird bei kongenitalen oder erworbenen Herzerkrankungen mit erhöhtem Risiko für den rhythmogenen Herztod implantiert. Das Spektrum der Patienten umfasst junge (Hoch)leistungssportler bis hin zu älteren morbiden Patienten. Die aktuellen europäischen Leitlinien bzgl. Wettkampfsport bei ICD-Patienten empfehlen aktuell nur gering statisch und gering dynamisch belastende Sportarten nach Mitchell wie Kricket, Golf oder Yoga. Ob man mit diesen Empfehlungen unseren ICD-Patienten gerecht werden oder eine individualiserte Sportempfehlung zum Standard werden kann, wird in diesem Artikel diskutiert.

Abstract

Implantable defibrillators (ICD) are implanted in patients with congenital or acquired heart diseases with significantly elevated risk for arrhythmogenic cardiac death. The typical profile of these patients ranges from young (competitive) athletes to morbid older patients. European guidelines allow low dynamic and low static physical activity like cricket, golf or yoga. Discussion about individualized or general recommendations for sports activities with an ICD is the main focus of this article.
