together. Information on pre-race weights should be available to medical personnel evaluating collapsed athletes—an increase in body weight is an important clue to EAH. The report includes up-to-date recommendations for doctors and other health professionals involved in evaluating and treating athletes with possible EAH.

Recent years have seen growing concern about the risk of EAH in endurance athletes, particularly with the increased popularity of marathon running for previously sedentary people. The panel members hope their consensus statement will “curtail the growing problem of EAH by disseminating the most current information on the prevalence, nature and treatment of this disorder.” The report provides a “snapshot in time” of the current state of knowledge regarding EAH—the position statement will be revised as new information is discovered. Suggested research priorities include the establishment of an international registry to include all new cases of EAH.
