Overview

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) was initially described by Hippocrates, the founder of modern medicine. MacWilliam proposed the concept that SCD in human beings is due to ventricular fibrillation (VF) more than 120 years ago, during the time when the electrocardiogram was not yet invented.[1]

The concept of evolutions on how the relationship of SCD and VF was established, the development of defibrillators was achieved, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) methods were practiced, can provide a better description of how SCD evolved through time. [1]

Discovery

  • The importance of VF became clear after decades of exploring the scientific explanation for sudden cardiac death.
