HOW CAN YOU PREVENT<br />

SUDDEN DEATH?<br />

Sudden death is usually due to an underlying heart condition. High risk<br />

factors include:<br />

• Diabetes, High Blood Pressure, High Cholesterol, Strong Family History or Smokers.<br />

• Those who participate in vigorous physical exercise like marathons are also at<br />

increased risk if there is an underlying heart condition.<br />

In most individuals, sudden death can be prevented if you have your<br />

heart checked!<br />

HEART, STROKE & CANCER CENTRE is a one-stop specialist<br />

medical centre specializing in the prevention, early detection and<br />

management of heart disease, stroke and cancer.<br />

Uses the newest generation Heart MRI Scanner, the 1st in Asia, which is<br />

able to image the heart without the need of x-rays or contrast injection.<br />

In addition to imaging the heart arteries, it is able to detect abnormalities<br />

of the heart muscle which may be predisposed to sudden death.<br />

One of the largest experiences in the region is the use of CT imaging<br />

to detect blockage of the heart arteries and is the first in the Asia<br />

Pacific region with a scientific published paper showing high<br />

accuracy of CT Coronary Angiography.<br />
