The biggest misconception about sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) is that it won’t happen to your child. You have no family history…your child has no symptoms…your doctor has not indicated any issues…your school or youth program has not prioritized cardiac preparedness. But there is a dangerously low awareness of the true incidence of SCA among parents, educators, team sports and the medical community, even though it’s the leading cause of death on school campuses and the #1 killer of student athletes.
