Health Event- Cardiac Screening
Please see attached our flyer and the live registration link for the upcoming Cardiac Screening Health Promotion event at Da Vinci Schools.
WHAT: Da Vinci Schools in partnership with Saving Hearts Foundation and UCLA presents a FREE cardiac screening event Saturday, November 16, 2024. Pre-register now! Walk-ins welcome, those with appointments seen first!
WHY: Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is a life-threatening emergency that occurs when the heart suddenly stops beating. While often linked to chronic medical conditions, SCA alarmingly stands as the leading cause of death among athletes and on school campuses. 1 in 300 young individuals harbors an undetected heart condition, significantly heightening their risk of SCA. Come get an EKG, see a cardiologist on the spot if any abnormalities are detected for immediate follow up.
WHO: Young people ages 12-25
WHEN: Saturday, November 16, 2024, 9am-3pm
WHERE: Blackbox theater, 201 N Douglas Street, El Segundo
