Overview

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) comprises almost 50% of all mortality due to cardiovascular problems [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6]. Incidence of SCD increases proportionally with age [7] [8] [9] . Men are more commonly affected with sudden cardiac death than women in all age groups.[6] [10] [11] [12] Racial backgrounds have large effects [13] [14].

Epidemiology and demographics

  • The prevalence of sudden cardiac death is approximately 1.40 per 100,000 individuals in women to 6.68 per 100.000 individuals in men worldwide.[15]
  • In 2015, the incidence of adult in-hospital cardiac arrests was estimated to be 970 cases per 100,000 individuals in the United States.[16]
  • In some middle-aged males, sports is related to SCD which occurs more frequently in a recreational setting than a competition [17] [18]. In these instances, coronary artery disease (CAD) is the most common cause [19] [20][21].

Age

  • There is a low incidence of SCD in infants and children which is approximately 1 per 100,000 person-years.
  • The incidence of SCD in middle-aged people (50 to 60 years old) is around 50 per 1000,000 person-years.
  • Among people in their eight decade of life, incidence of SCD approximates about 200 per 100,000 person-years [2].
