Análise ecocardiográfica em atletas de futebol masculino de uma equipe da primeira divisão do estado de Pernambuco

The aim of the study was to determine changes in hemodynamic parameters and morphofunctional heart of professional Soccer players and control group. Where hemodynamic, electrocardiographic and echocardiographic 20 professional soccer players and 19 untrained parameters were analyzed. There were no significant differences in the variables age, weight, height and body surface area. Cardiovascular and echocardiographic data at rest. The MVE: (237.20 ± 40.00g) vs NA: (187.00 ± 26.00g) and LVMI A (121.65 ± 20.23 g / cm) vs NA: (99.84 ± 13.79 g / cm), were significant in the athletes group compared the NA (p <0.001). The values of AE: (18.72 ± 1:23 mm / m² vs NA: (17.70 ± 1.67 mm / m²), LVDV A: (74.89 ± 11.79 ml / m²) NA vs (66.56 ± 9.60 ml / m²) and LVOT A: (27.67 ± 6:08 ml / m²) vs NA:. (22.96 ± 4:41 ml / m²), differences in DBP (p <0.027) and FCR (p <0.001) There were three cases of mitral valve prolapse, five cases of valvular insufficiency mild mitral, of which four cases are associated with left atrial enlargement, three cases of mild tricuspid valve insufficiency and two cases of aortic valve regurgitation, and mild and moderate and the other associated with bicuspid valve. Soccer players showed a significant increase the left heart chambers. Seems that physical training Soccer produces physiological effects on HR, DAP and MAP, resulting in a pattern of concentric and eccentric hypertrophy. Such changes associated with valvular morphofunctional findings justify conducting regular screening, particularly in the evaluation preparticipation.
