There are a number of viruses which are known to cause myocarditis and the coronavirus is known to have tropism to heart muscle. Dr. Drezner explains that in college athletes, myocarditis represents 9% of sudden cardiac death in the pre-COVID era.

Key points to consider include:<\/p>\n<div>&#8211;\u00a0Using a shared-decision model where the needs of all stakeholders are taken into account.<\/div>\n<div>&#8211;\u00a0Performing a risk-benefit analysis in which the pros and cons of return to sport are carefully weighed up against one another. Key considerations for college athletes which are explored in this podcast include unique transmission and mental health concerns.<\/div>\n<div>&#8211;\u00a0Demonstrating transparency when communicating the reasons for initiating or delaying return to sport.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">How should we be screening our college athletes if they\u2019ve tested positive for having coronavirus?<\/span><\/p>\n<p>There are currently a number of different guidelines which are all reasonably similar but have slightly variable approaches. Furthermore, many of these guidelines are constantly evolving as we develop our understanding of the coronavirus.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Drezner explains that the development of COVID myocarditis often results in ongoing cardiovascular symptoms beyond the initial isolation period, such as ongoing exercise intolerance, dyspnoea with exertion beyond acute infection and prolonged chest pain. After asking about these symptoms following an athlete\u2019s isolation, Dr. Drezner says he would ideally want an ECG (click\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/bjsm.bmj.com\/content\/47\/3\/125\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/bjsm.bmj.com\/content\/47\/3\/125&amp;source=gmail&amp;ust=1597941519186000&amp;usg=AFQjCNEIa8i3Nx-sD-jo7xSgjKQv1X-nyQ\">here<\/a>\u00a0to read an article outlining normal ECG findings in athletes), Troponin-level and Echocardiogram. If all of these were normal, a graduated exercise programme could be commenced, regularly re-evaluating the athlete to ensure that they do not have ongoing symptoms. Dr. Drezner says that he would have a very low threshold to get a Cardiac MRI if any of the aforementioned tests demonstrated any abnormalities.
