Raising awareness of CRY & its objectives can be as easy as a click of a button or downloading posters to display in your windows. Liking or sharing posts on our social media is such a vital way to help raise awareness & save young lives. https://t.co/onrLFvFTNs

Such a moving article, and a story happening too often. Every week in the UK at least 12 young people die of undiagnosed heart conditions. Since its formation in 1995, CRY has been working to reduce the frequency of young sudden cardiac death (YSCD). #HeartHealth #12AWeek
A hard article but if it helps friends of friends and the wider public then there will be a chink of light from our tragedy. We lose the equivalent of a state secondary school full of YP each year to these conditions. #raiseawareness #cardiacriskintheyoung

Screening to identify young people at risk is cost-effective when conducted correctly – the conditions can be treated, securing a future for those identified. All young people should have the choice to be tested.

1 in 300 young people that CRY screens will have a potentially life-threatening heart condition. CRY aims to save young lives by offering screening to anyone aged 14-35 thanks to the support and funding of those affected by a young sudden cardiac death. #TestMyHeart

LA reservoir and contractile strain by #echofirst adds incremental prognostic value for pts with AL or ATTR amyloid cardiomyopathy. In absence of AF, prophylactic anticoagulation should be considered if LA reservoir strain is <6.4% or contractile strain is <2.4% @AllanLKleinMD1
