点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a tragic consequence of a number of heart diseases. The death is often unexpected and has major implications for the family and community. This 3-year study seeks to evaluate clinical, genetic, and long-term outcomes in Australian families where SCD has occurred in a young relative (aged 1-35 years). This study will improve clinical and genetic evaluation of families, resulting in targeted management strategies, with the ultimate goal to prevent SCD.
