Epidemiological, clinical and laboratory studies have provided definitive evidence that physical activity is able to improve fitness and reduce cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Moreover, physical exercise also seems to significantly reduce the risk of developing other chronic diseases such as obesity, osteoporosis, diabetes, tumours and depression. Promoting physical activity in the general population is therefore one of the primary objectives of our healthcare institutions. Although the benefits of an active lifestyle have been demonstrated by numerous scientific data, only a few numbers of Italians and Europeans take up regular physical exercise. To promote physical activity, both in the general population and in subjects affected by cardiovascular diseases, the Italian Federation of Sports Medicine, the Italian Society of Sports Cardiology, the Italian Association of Hospital Cardiologists, the Italian Society of Cardiology, the Italian Association of Out-of-Hospital Cardiologists and the Italian Group of Cardiac Rehabilitation have promoted the constitution of a Task Force made up of experts in the fields of sports cardiology. The document produced by the Task Force is intended for healthcare professionals, and deals with the role of physical activity in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases. It examines the beneficial effects of physical activity on the cardiovascular system, while analysing the possible risks involved and how they can be avoided. The rational principles underlying the prescription of physical activity in the cardiologic setting are described, as are the modalities for prescribing such activity.
流行病学、临床和实验室研究已提供确凿证据表明，体育活动能够改善健康状况并降低心血管疾病的发病率和死亡率。此外，体育锻炼似乎还能显著降低患其他慢性疾病的风险，如肥胖症、骨质疏松症、糖尿病、肿瘤和抑郁症。因此，在普通人群中推广体育活动是我们医疗机构的主要目标之一。尽管大量科学数据已证明积极生活方式的益处，但只有少数意大利人和欧洲人进行定期体育锻炼。为了在普通人群和心血管疾病患者中推广体育活动，意大利运动医学联合会、意大利运动心脏病学会、意大利医院心脏病学家协会、意大利心脏病学会、意大利院外心脏病学家协会以及意大利心脏康复小组推动成立了一个由运动心脏病学领域专家组成的特别工作组。该特别工作组编写的文件面向医疗保健专业人员，探讨了体育活动在心血管疾病预防和治疗中的作用。它研究了体育活动对心血管系统的有益影响，同时分析了可能涉及的风险以及如何避免这些风险。文中描述了在心脏病学环境中开具体育活动处方的合理原则以及开具此类活动处方的方式。
