okay , as we know heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops resulting in decreased blood supply to the brain and other organs in the body. It is different from a heart attack, maybe which occurs when blood flow to a portion of the heart is blocked. Coronary heart disease is the leading cause of sudden cardiac arrest. Some other conditions like hypertension, congestive heart failure, arrhythmia also increases the risk of cardiac arrest. Non-cardiac factors leading to the SCA include accidental injury or trauma, pulmonary embolism, drowning etc. The risk factors which increases the probability of the cardiac arrest are - smoking, lack of physical exercise, obesity, Diabetes and family history.
