COVID-19 Cardiac Registry<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The University of Maryland<\/strong> is part of a consortium of Big Ten colleges conducting important national research about COVID-19\u2019s effect on student-athletes. University of Maryland, College Park<\/a><\/strong>\u2019s expertise in sports medicine, kinesiology, and epidemiology is joined with University of Maryland, Baltimore<\/a><\/strong>\u2019s proficiency in cardiology, radiology, and epidemiology. Maryland\u2019s team is leading the effort to perform core laboratory readings of cardiac magnetic resonance studies and to analyze that data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Results provide critical information about the seriousness of the illness, which may be used to predict which athletes will have severe cardiac consequences from COVID-19. With support from University of Maryland Strategic Partnership: MPowering the State<\/em><\/a><\/strong>, J Schafer Cardiovascular Research Fund, and the Rink Family Foundation, data collection continued to provide researchers with an opportunity to evaluate the athletes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
