Sudden stop in effective blood flow due to the failure of the heart to beat

Cardiac arrest ▸ Facts ▸ Comments ▸ News ▸ Videos

Cardiac arrest, also known as sudden cardiac arrest, is when the heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops beating. As a result blood will not be pumped around the body in normal circulation, consciousness will be rapidly lost, and breathing will be abnormal or absent. Without immediate intervention such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), and possibly defibrillation, death will occur within minutes.
