The article exemplifies solving problem of permit for coaching and contest in athletes with marked tricuspidal regurgitation. Invasive study analysis of intracardiac hemodynamic parameters at rest and during electrostimulation-induced tachycardia helps to differentiate primary and functional tricuspidal insufficiency, to reveal latent cardiac insufficiency and unfavorable disorders of cardiac rhythm and conductivity. This investigation method has to be used in cases when other modalities are unable to assess the risk of fatal events at the highest submaximal heart rate.
