NEWS

• 1 in 3 adults – both men and women - has some form of cardiovascular disease.

• About every 26 seconds an American will suffer a coronary event and about every minute someone will die from one.

• Each year about 1.5 million Americans will have a heart attack with absolutely no warning signs.
For about half of those, the heart attack will be fatal.

• In 90% of adult victims of sudden cardiac death, two or more major coronary arteries are narrowed or blocked.

• Brain death and permanent death start to occur in just 4-6 minutes after someone experiences cardiac arrest.

• The cardiac 64 CT scan provides 3-D images of the heart so detailed heart disease can be detected even at the earliest stages. It is in the earliest stages that heart disease is the most treatable.

• In the time it took to read this, two people had a coronary event and one of them died.
