Introduce free screening for SADS (Sudden Adult Death Syndrome) under the NHS

Additional Information

Every week in the UK at least 12 young people die of undiagnosed heart conditions - also known as SADS. In most cases, this is without any prior signs or symptoms.

There is a simple way to diagnose and subsequently prevent most of these cardiac abnormalities. This is by having an ECG test and results read by a cardiologist.

These tests are not currently available under the NHS and many GP's are unaware of the condition. We want these to be made readily available under the NHS, and awareness of the condition advertised by the government.

Please add your name to this e- petition and spread the detail to anyone you know. We would like Her Majesty's Government to debate this important subject in the House of Commons.

Screening SAVES LIVES! And helps prevent terrible emotional distress to loved ones who lose a family member to SADS. The loss is not just to the loved ones but to the country.
