Core Tip	The electrocardiographic (ECG) has been used for years to diagnose left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH). However, to the best of our knowledge, there were no prior studies validating most common ECG criteria for LVH in young adults. The authors believe that this is important group of population, as athletes screening for pre participation to professional sport falls into this category. ECG is one of the proposed screening tools and we think that it should be validated for diagnosis of LVH. This study showed that common ECG criteria for LVH can be used in young adults with similar sensitivity and specificity to other age groups.
