“…Dysfunction in the heart's conduction system frequently leads to cardiac arrest, which results in the heart's inability to pump blood efficiently. Ventricular fibrillation is the primary cause of cardiac arrest in 65-80% of cases [1]. Numerous heart-related conditions can lead to cardiovascular complications, including coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy, inherited conditions, congenital heart disease, heart valve disease, acute myocarditis, and conduction disorders, such as long QT syndrome.…”

“…Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) refers to the sudden loss of cardiac mechanical activity due to ventricular fibrillation or asystole [1]. Across the world, SCA is the most common cause of cardiac death and is responsible for 15-20% of all deaths [2,3].…”

“…Survival-to-discharge rates of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests have also improved over time [11,12]. Eighty percent of SCA have a cardiac cause, with majority of these cases being due to coronary artery disease, and influenza may affect SCA rates by triggering AMI [1].…”
