New data highlight concerning trends among young Americans and sudden cardiac death. Our goal should be that every cardiac arrest is vigorously met with the tools needed to save a life—for athletes and urban and rural communities alike.

For anyone wondering about the connection of peak VO2 to mortality:
In individuals aged 70-77 with peak VO2 <26.5 (male) and <22.2 (female) over a year, risk of death 2 to 5-fold higher than a high peak VO2 group
