Sudden death often occurs when tense work, emotional excitement, defecation, sleeping or waking up in the morning.

According to statistics from relevant US experts, about 32 % of the causes of abnormal death in the United States are sudden death, with an average of 1 person dying per minute, which is 1/3 more than the death caused by cancer [3].

In my country, according to data reports, sudden death accounts for about 2%to 10%of the total death [4], which is also a very high number.

Studies have found:

37%among patients with sudden heart -derived deaths in the age of 20 to 30 are due to coronary heart disease; among patients 30 to 40, this proportion rose to 80%[5].

Therefore, people with a family history of sudden death should go to the Department of Cardiology and other departments for relevant screening, and patients with myocardial disease should actively treat the primary disease.

Other people also need regular physical examinations, quit smoking and alcohol, maintain good schedules, and avoid excessive labor and excessive exercise.

I hope that people who read this content are less dangerous and more healthy.
