Sudden cardiac death affects thousands of teens yearly. It is the leading cause of non-traumatic death in teens. Most victims of sudden cardiac death have no warning signs of cardiac problems until their initial cardiac arrest and 92% of those arrests are fatal.

Operation Screen Your Athlete is a group of health care professionals that have come together to hold free screenings to help prevent sudden cardiac death in athletes. We offer free screenings to school age athletes 14-18 years of age. Cardiologists, nurses, EMTs, and echocardiogram technicians are available to perform theses exams. Testing consists of a medical questionnaire, EKG, and limited echocardiogram if needed. Any athlete found to have abnormal results are referred to a cardiologist for further evaluation and treatment.
