Sports Cardiology: A Conversation About Performance and Prevention

In this episode of The Heart of Prevention, we sit down with sports cardiology experts Dr. Brad Petek and Dr. Nate Moulson to explore where performance meets prevention. From differentiating the “athlete’s heart” from early cardiomyopathy to navigating myocarditis, arrhythmias, and return-to-play decisions, we dive into the nuanced cardiovascular care of both elite and everyday athletes.

We discuss evolving guidance after COVID-19, the role of cardiac MRI, shared decision-making in gray-zone cases, and how to think about prevention in a population often assumed to be “low risk.” Whether you’re caring for competitive athletes, weekend warriors, or highly active patients, this conversation offers practical insights, clinical pearls, and a forward-looking view of where sports cardiology is headed.

A must-listen for clinicians passionate about prevention, exercise, and optimizing heart health across the lifespan.
