Sudden cardiac death

Cardiovascular Pathology, 2001
The rate of cardiac deaths that are sudden is approximately 50%, and decreases with age. The causes of sudden cardiac death are diverse, and are a function of age. In children and adolescents, coronary anomalies, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and myocarditis are frequent substrates for lethal arrhythmias; in adults, coronary atherosclerosis and acquired ...

Sudden Cardiac Death

Southern Medical Journal, 2006
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) due to ventricular tachyarrhythmias is a leading cause of death in the United States. Various etiologies, including ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathies, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, valvular or congenital heart diseases and other less common disorders, may result in SCD.

Cardiac Innervation and Sudden Cardiac Death [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2015
Afferent and efferent cardiac neurotransmission via the cardiac nerves intricately modulates nearly all physiological functions of the heart (chronotropy, dromotropy, lusitropy, and inotropy). Afferent information from the heart is transmitted to higher levels of the nervous system for processing (intrinsic cardiac nervous system, extracardiac ...

Sudden Cardiac Death

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 1995
This article uses a biologic model of sudden cardiac death to identify structural abnormalities that serve as the substrate for sustained arrhythmias and functional changes that are transient and necessary for triggering an arrhythmia. The biologic framework is a valuable tool to use in understanding the relationship between structure and function and ...

Pattern of sudden cardiac deaths

Medico-Legal Journal, 2022
Background and objective Sudden cardiac death can be defined as a sudden, unexpected death caused by loss of heart function. Notwithstanding major developments in the diagnosis and treatment of heart disease, it remains the major contributing factor for deaths. This considers the pattern of sudden cardiac deaths.

Sudden cardiac death

The American Journal of Cardiology, 1988
Most sudden deaths in industrial nations are the result of underlying coronary artery disease. Longitudinal studies have demonstrated that the percent of all coronary events presenting as sudden death increases with age in both men and women. Relative weight is another important risk factor; the age-adjusted rate of sudden cardiac death for the upper ...

Sudden Cardiac Death in Women

Circulation, 2019
Despite recent progress in profiling of risk for sudden cardiac death (SCD) and prevention and intervention of cardiac diseases, SCD remains a major cause of death. Among women, the incidence of SCD is significant, but lower than in men, particularly in the premenopausal and early postmenopausal years.

Sudden cardiac death in athletes

British Medical Bulletin, 1992
Sudden death in athletes is a rare but tragic occurrence. Congenital cardiovascular abnormalities, usually asymptomatic and often undiagnosed during life, are the main causes in young athletes. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and congenital coronary anomalies are the most commonly occurring disorders. Idiopathic concentric left ventricular hypertrophy (non-

Physiopathology of Sudden Cardiac Death

2003
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is unexpected natural death due to cardiac causes, with abrupt loss of consciousness within 1 h of the onset of acute symptoms, with or without pre-existing heart disease. It is very hard to assess the exact incidence of SCD because of variability in the definition of the concept of “sudden” [1,2]. We are not discussing death
