Purposesome controversy still exists about the reality and mechanics of exercise-induced cardiac fatigue. Little is known about the kinetics of the impact of ultra-long duration exercise (ULDE) on the left ventricular (LV) function. We studied evolution of LV contractility indexes by serial examinations during a multistage ULDE race.Methodssuccessive echocardiographic assessment was performed on 20 well-trained amateur male runners (42.8±3.5 year-old) participating in a 236km 5-stage foot race in the Sahara desert. An echocardiograhic study was performed the day before the race (T1), following the completion of the second (41km, T2) and the fifth (42.2km, T3) stages, then within the second day of recovery (T4). Contractility indexes include...
