Every week, 12 young people lose their lives to sudden cardiac death in the UK. Whilst sport does not cause the problem of sudden death syndrome, it can exacerbate an existing undiagnosed condition and the high risk group is the young. A new national campaign aims to reduce the number of undiagnosed heart conditions. The CRY Philips Test My Heart Tour 09 aims to test over 3,000 14-35 year old’s hearts to identify heart conditions which could potentially prove fatal if left untreated.
