ABSTRACT
Sudden cardiac death(SCD)in the elderly is defined as a sudden accidental death in patients over 65 years of age within one hour of symptom onset or within 24 hours with no symptoms, possibly due to arrhythmia or abrupt hemodynamic changes.It is characterized by rapid onset, rapid progression, and high mortality.Sudden cardiac death in the elderly is the most serious clinical syndrome in elderly patients with heart disease.It accounts for more than 80% of all sudden death cases and is the cause of sudden death in the vast majority of elderly patients.Clinical methods for the detection of sudden cardiac death include mostly screening through family and personal history, physical examination, electrocardiogram analysis and echocardiography, but their drawbacks include lack specificity, low detection rates and relatively limited scenarios for their use.Genetic susceptibility is also responsible for sudden cardiac death.Genetic factors play an important role in the occurrence and development of sudden cardiac death.This review summarized the correlation between sudden death and genetic factors underlying different cardiovascular diseases, including the role of genetic polymorphisms in the occurrence of sudden cardiac death in older adults.
