College Athletes (19 - 25)

Saving the Lives of College Athletes Today!

You are living your dream, feeling and looking great as you compete with some of the best athletes in the world, yet there is something important you should know. College athletes are believed to be two to three times more likely to suffer Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) than their less-active peers. Exercise can push an already compromised heart over the edge.

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) supports ECG screenings in the Lausanne Recommendations, and heart screenings are now required for all players in the National Basketball Association (NBA), the National Football League (NFL), the National Hockey League (NHL), and the World Cup™ Soccer organization FIFA (Fédération Internationale de Football Association).

Some colleges now require that their athletes undergo heart screenings as part of their preparticipation requirements.

Getting your heart screened means knowing you have done everything possible to protect yourself from Sudden Cardiac Arrest.
