Historical Perspective

Historical terms such as Athelete's Heart, Soldier's Heart, Runner's Heart, and Effort Syndrome referring to cardiac adaptations that occur with prolonged endurance or excessive exertions were initially coined in the 19th century.[1][2] Sir William Osler described hypertrophy as a compensatory response during the development of the failing heart that precedes the state of broken compensation secondary to degeneration and weakening of the heart muscle.[3]

In the 1960s,animal models were investigated for the effects of pressure overload.Such investigations led Meerson to argue that cardiac growth induced by biomechanical stress has a protective role,at least in the short term.In the 1970s and 1980s, patients of valvular heart disease were investigated and their hemodynamic measurements showed that there is an adaptive hypertrophic growth taking place in the heart.Such growth can lead to systolic dysfunction when it is inadequate.[4]
