Summary

Sudden cardiac events in young athletes can occur without warning, raising urgent questions for families, coaches and anyone involved in youth sports. Pediatric cardiologist Dr. Kelvin Lau explains what sudden cardiac arrest is, why student athletes may be more vulnerable and what steps like monitoring symptoms and incorporating routine EKGs that can help protect kids competing at any level.
