Abstract

The majority of heart disease-related deaths are caused by sudden cardiac death. It is most common in adults between the ages of 35 and 45. Every day, one thousand people are estimated to be involved in emergencies. The number of ongoing challenges and causes of death in the United States remains unchanged. As a result, improved preventive strategies for sudden cardiac arrest and death are required. The majority of deaths occur in emergency rooms or outside of hospitals. The causes are typically unexpected, and mortalities in just 60 minutes of the appearance of illness. This chapter goes into detail about the symptoms, causes, and risk factors for sudden cardiac arrest. Raising public awareness about the importance of prevention strategies is an hourly need.
