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 />

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 />
