Abstract

In India, cardiovascular disease is the major cause of mortality for men between the ages of 20 and 65 years old. It is also the most common cause of death overall. According to estimates provided by Zipes and Wellens, coronary artery disease claims the lives of up to 80 percent of people who pass away unexpectedly from heart disease. The occurrence changes during the 24-hour period beginning in the wee hours of the morning. The occurrence of sudden cardiac death (also known as SCD) has been climbing steadily in every region of the world. It is a very difficult and challenging task for forensic physicians to determine the cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD), despite the fact that this is one of the most desired pieces of information among the clinicians who are involved in these cases.
