Survivors of an episode of out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation (not due to a reversible cause) or hemodynamically significant sustained ventricular tachycardia should in most cases receive an implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) rather than antiarrhythmic drug therapy. A number of recently published clinical trials (summarized later) point

Forensic Science, Medicine, and Pathology, 2009
In the investigation of sudden death in adults, channelopathies, such as long QT syndrome, have risen to the fore in the minds of forensic pathologists in recent years. Examples of these disorders are touched upon in this review as an absence of abnormal findings at postmortem examination is characteristic and the importance of considering the ...

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 ...

American Heart Journal, 1964
Abstract 1. 1. When application of the term “sudden death” is limited to instances wherein death occurred more or less instantaneously and in some degree unexpectedly, the vast majority of its victims will be found to suffer from organic heart disease, predominantly coronary occlusive disease. 2. 2.

SCD is a tragic-event that rarely affects exercising individuals. It is important for the practitioner to recognize the normal physiologic changes that occur in the exercising athlete that correspond to AHS so as to differentiate them from conditions placing an athlete at risk for SCD.

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 ...

To the Editor:— As a contribution to the problem of "Sudden Unexpected Deaths" that was discussed in your editorial inThe Journal( 209 : 1358, 1969), I wish to quote here the incidence of sudden deaths we found among mental patients. In an investigation of leading causes of death in institutionalized chronic schizophrenic patients, 1,275 autopsy ...

DR. WOLF: Any discussion of sudden death has to be somewhat speculative because we are examining it always after the fact. The pathologist is limited in looking for a structural explanation of what is a functional phenomenon. Sudden death implies a cessation in the delivery of oxygen to the brain, a state that can be accomplished in a variety of ways ...

Sudden cardiac death can occur after exposure to extreme stress and sometimes as a complication of acute neurologic disease. Excessive adrenergic stimulation of the heart is most likely the responsible mechanism for the majority of cases of sudden cardiac death.
