Issues in Racial and Ethnic Healthcare Disparities
Unequal Treatment: Confronting Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Healthcare – Institute of Medicine
• Impact of culture and ethnicity on
health behavior and health
outcomes.
• Need to tailor and develop culturally
relevant strategies to engage
Hispanics in cardiovascular health
promotion.
• Need for a larger workforce of
healthcare providers, researchers,
and allies to CV health and
reducing CVD among the US
Hispanic population.

Personal History
1. Exertional chest pain/discomfort
2. Exertional syncope or near‐syncope
3. Excessive exertional and unexplained fatigue/fatigue associated with exercise
4. Prior detection of a heart murmur
5. Elevated systemic blood pressure
6. Prior restriction from participation in sports
7. Prior testing of the heart ordered by a physician
Family history
8. Premature death-‐sudden and unexpected before age of 50 years due to heart disease,
in one or more relatives
9. Disability from heart disease in a close relative < 50 years old
10. Specific knowledge of certain cardiac conditions in family members: hypertrophic or
dilated cardiomyopathy, long-‐QT syndrome or other ion channelopathies, Marfan
syndrome, or clinically important arrhythmias
American Heart Association 14-‐Element Screening (Maron BJ Circulation 2014)
Physical examination
11. Heart Murmur-‐exam supine and standing or with Valsalva, specifically to identify
murmurs of dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction
12. Femoral pulses to exclude aortic stenosis
13. Physical stigmata of Marfan syndrome
14. Brachial artery blood pressure (sitting, preferably taken in both arms)
Electrocardiogram
College +/- Professional
PVCs: Athletes with single PVCs and forms no greater than couplets at
rest and during exercise testing, without structural heart disease can
participate in all competitive sports.
Be prepared!
Basic life support available during training and competition
Automated external defibrillators (AED) at training sites
and stadiums and arenas
Respond rapidly!
Evaluate unconscious victim immediately – pulse, breathing?
Start CPR in 2 minutes or less
Call 911 if not already on site
Deploy automated external defibrillator ASAP
Thank you.
