A Past President of the Italian Society of Sport Cardiology (SIC Sport), he is currently Director of the official journal of SIC Sport: Journal of Sport Cardiology. He has published over 200 articles in Italian and international journals, and has authored ten books on arrhythmias, ablation, and sudden death in athletes. He was the first in Italy (February 1990) to perform trancatheter ablation surgery with radiofrequency of the abnormal route in the WPW. Since 1990 he has performed over 1500 ablative sessions in various types of arrhythmias.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePaolo Zeppilli is an expert on Cardiology and Sports Medicine. His work mainly focuses on athlete's heart and cardiovascular diseases (valvulopathies, cardiomyopathies) responsible for sudden death in young athletes, particularly in the field of congenital coronary anomalies. He was a Founder Member and Past President of the Italian Society of Sport Cardiology (SIC Sport). He was Full Professor of Methods and Didactics of Motor Activities (Sports Medicine) and Chief of Post-graduate School of Sports Medicine for two decades at the Catholic University of Rome.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 194\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.43 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 23, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52242539839762,"sku":"9783030804497","price":194.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0941\/2211\/5346\/files\/RkJVcko3ZTdpMno2LzNnN3lVWDhRQT09.webp?v=1777917690","url":"https:\/\/ckbookstore.net\/products\/sport-related-sudden-cardiac-death-causes-and-prevention-paperback","provider":"CK BOOKSTORE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
