Peter John Hinchliffe, a fit 33-year-old man, died after collapsing while cycling on 11 September 2010; the inquest concluded that the cause of death was arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, which was undiagnosed and untreated. The principal concerns were delays and differing approaches in investigating syncope, including delays in transferring investigations to the NHS, and inconsistent advice about exercise for young athletes in a recognised red-flag situation.
