Women have a dramatically lower risk of sports-related sudden cardiac arrest (Sr SCA)
1. More people are taking up sports, however, there is a concern about Sr-SCA. A recent study compared the rates of Sr-SCA in women & men in Europe.

2. Out of 34,826 sudden cardiac arrests (SCA) between 2006 and 2017, 760 (2.2%) were sports-related.
Only 54 (7.1%) incidents of SCA occurred in women as compared to 706 in men.
Men had >13 times higher incidence of Sr-SCA as compared to women (0.19 vs 2.63 cases per million).

Lost my father after prolonged illness. Miss him every day.
Had to handle mother's serious health issues. Did her angioplasty myself after a heart attack. Later a fall and spine issues.

Despite all valiant efforts, both cardiac arrest and cardiogenic shock have poor survival. Out of hospital cardiac arrests have the worst outcome. Hence the need to learn #CPR with which atleast some people can be saved.

What’s a “capture beat” ?
During ventricular tachycardia, sometimes the SA nodal firing takes control of independent ventricular depolarization for brief moment, as this happens, “CAPTURE BEATS” appear. They are nothing but a brief moment of normal looking P-QRS pattern

Whats a “fusion beat” ?
During ventricular tachycardia, sometimes the SA nodal impulse and the independent ventricular impulse combine together to create a mix looking P-QRS pattern called fusion beats.

A recent study looked at the prevalence of sports-related SCA in people aged >65 years.

The annual Sport-related SCA incidence among ≥65 years was 3.3/100,000 in Portland and 2.1/100,000 in Ventura. The most common associated activities were cycling, gym, and running.

cardiac arrest is when the heart stops - abruptly and with little warning
this is different than a "heart attack" when there is a blockage to a coronary artery, and USUALLY the heart doesn't stop

Figure out and leverage your optimal amount of stress - not too little, not too much.
If overloaded ("right shifted"), deploy tactics to bring you back to optimal ("left shift").
How much stress is “optimal”?
What does being right shifted feel like?
What left shifts you back to center?
All these questions require experimenting on/with yourself - there’s no one-size fits all answer.
Start by looking inward: when you're overloaded, how do you know?

Sudden deaths and the fear among doctors
Sudden deaths and the fear among doctors
I was forced to post this write up for some of my students who wanted me to comment on sudden death of a few of the young and energetic people, including doctors, due to massive myocardial infarction- obviously everyone is upset about this issue now.
It is frightening, especially when we hear that at least a few of them were fitness freaks too- that further heightened the fear psychosis to newer levels in the Covid scenario.

Timely CPR saved Chris Eriksen's life.

-how immediate collapse is after #CardiacArrest
-how quickly we need to respond
In Cardiac Arrest the heart stops while other organs are healthy: rapid CPR response saves lives.

There has been criticism of TV companies broadcasting footage of Eriksen's on-pitch collapse. I wonder what he will say when he is ready to comment.
I hope the footage drives better public understanding of CPR & a wider uptake of CPR training.

CPR training must include info on success rates, & explain when NOT to attempt it. CPR is entirely appropriate when the heart stops first: it gives brain & other organs their best chance of preserving function. Early, effective CPR by trained people may save 1 in 5.

“Adult patients with non-traumatic OHCA should be considered for transport to a cardiac arrest centre”
Pathways for OHCA in the U.K. have been variable. Will this stimulate more standardisation? Prehospital staff need to nail the post-ROSC care bundle. Transport times longer?
