Cardiovascular diseases can lead to sudden in-flight incapacitation and long-term disability in aircraft pilots. Electrocardiogram (ECG) has been widely used to screen for these diseases in routine aeromedical examinations. Several ECG changes such as complete left bundle-branch block (CLBBB) and left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH) have been associated with increased likelihood of underlying structural cardiac diseases in addition to the emergence of newly recognized cardiovascular diseases such as Brugada syndrome. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to analyze decadal ECG changes in aircraft pilots between 40 and 50 yr in order to make an appropriate evaluation of these ECG changes.
