cardiac arrest

Did you know that cardiac arrest (SCA) kills 325,000 people a year - or nearly 900 per day?

Did you know that SCA usually occurs without any warning?

Did you know that, If an individual is not treated within 4 to 6 minutes from the onset of SCA, the results can be fatal?


Inside Cardiac Arrest (www.insidecardiacarrest.com), presented by St. Jude Medical, provides information about the risk factors, warning signs, and treatment of Sudden Cardiac Arrest. The site offers two videos: Sudden Cardiac Arrest and The Human Heart which is available at http://www.insidecardiacarrest.com. In the videos, a real doctor explains SCA and heart anatomy in simple, easy to understand language.
