Abstract excerpt

Sudden cardiac death (SCD), also known as sudden arrest, is a major health problem worldwide. It is usually defined as an unexpected death from a cardiac cause occurring within a short time in a person with or without preexisting heart disease. The pathogenesis of SCD is complex and multifaceted. A dynamic triggering factor usually interacts with an underlying heart disease, either genetically determined or...
