Many of us understand the importance of exercise to improve not only our cardiovascular health, but health in general. Despite healthier living, cardiac-related injury or even death can occur in those who appear physically healthy, even athletes. Join Dr Gherardo Finocchiaro as he discusses the aetiology and epidemiology of sudden cardiac death, and the importance of cardiac screening, diagnosis and risk minimisation.
