First seen Feb 28, 2026 · Last updated Apr 30, 2026 · Updated 6 times
Summary
This study looked at blood clots from 380 people who had a sudden cardiac arrest or a heart attack. Researchers wanted to see if the age and makeup of the clot could explain why some people die suddenly while others survive. They found that fresh, fast-forming clots were more common in sudden death cases, suggesting that how quickly a clot blocks an artery may trigger a fatal heart rhythm.
