Cardiac Function in Swimming-Induced Pulmonary Edema (SIPE)
Sponsor: Dalarna County Council, Sweden
Summary
Acute or chronic cardiac dysfunction could be a contributing factor to swimming-induced pulmonary edema (SIPE). Knowledge on cardiac function in SIPE is limited and recommendations for cardiac evaluation of patients with SIPE are lacking. The present study was designed to assess cardiac function in patients with SIPE and in asymptomatic swimmers.
