The Symptoms: Cardiac ArrestAn abstract is unavailable.doi:10.1097/01.EEM.0000288582.28028.bdMichael I. Greenberg
Cardiac arrest is a medical emergency that, in certain groups of patients, is potentially reversible if treated early enough (See "reversible causes" below). When unexpected cardiac arrest leads to death this is called sudden cardiac death (SCD). The primary first-aid treatment for cardiac arrest...
The onset of symptoms is called sudden cardiac arrest. It may appear due to prior unhealthy state of heart or sometimes without any known cardiac cause. Worldwide, the researchers and physiologists are facing challenge and publishing all possible solutions to predict the sudden cardiac death at an...
Although the risk of another sudden cardiac arrest is higher after the first one, many runners who have had one return to long distance racing without incident, Martinez said. An ICD can provide a layer of protection, but doesn’t make you bulletproof. After such a major event, you should...
Cardiac arrest is typically an assessment made by emergency medical personnel on the scene. SCD has traditionally been defined by World Health Organization (WHO) criteria, in which cardiac cause may be assumed if the death occurred within an hour of symptoms, or the deceased had been seen alive...
Survival after sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) remains low, and tools for improved prediction of patients at long-term risk for SCA are lacking. Alternative short-term approaches aimed at preemptive risk stratification and prevention are needed.To assess characteristics of symptoms in the 4 weeks before...
Out of hospital cardiac arrest (OOHCA) is a leading cause of death in the developed world [1, 2]. Coronary artery disease is the cause in up to 90% of cases [3]. Greater than 50% of deaths due to acute myocardial infarction (AMI) occur outside the hospital setting and early ventric...
Ali had to seek out private counseling, including guided family debriefing, to deal with post-traumatic stress symptoms. Ali is hoping other families won't have to do the same on their own. She served as a survivor family adviser for a U of A-led study on the care needs of families of...

At the cellular level, different types of cellular senescence are the basis of cardiac senescence. The replicative capacity of cells is limited, indicating that aging occurs at the cellular level, namely, as “cellular senescence”. Senescent cells exhibit cell cycle arrest, which initiates tissue ...
