Overview
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. In 2015, the incidence of adult in-hospital cardiac arrests was estimated to be 970 cases per 100,000 individuals in the united states. Cardiac arrest is more commonly observed within the first year of life due to sudden infant death syndrome and also between 45-75 years old due to increased risk of coronary artery disease. There is a significant decrease in sudden cardiac death at age 75 and older due to decreasing risk of coronary artery disease. Men are more commonly affected with sudden cardiac death than women in all age groups. Black individuals are more likely to develop cardiac arrest.
