The Cleveland Clinic (2023), defines Cardiac Arrest as an electrical issue that makes the heart stop beating or beats so fast that it stops pumping blood. During Cardiac Arrest people collapse and become unresponsive. Symptoms start without warning. According to the American Heart Association (2023), sudden cardiac death remains the most common cause of non-accidental death among college athletes.
If you see someone experiencing sudden cardiac arrest, do this:
Call 911 immediately.
Start CPR, even if it’s just the hands-only version.
Use an AED (automated external defibrillator) if there’s one available.
