Abstract
Sudden cardiac death during sport is rare. Deaths are mostly due to coronary artery disease in adults and cardiomyopathy or arrhythmia in children. Because the majority of sports deaths are witnessed, they present an opportunity to enhance outcomes by cardiopulmonary resuscitation training and increased availability of automated external defibrillators at sports venues.
