note[edit]

This article only discusses the clinician's meaning of "sudden death" ie. sudden cardiac death only. When a layman means "sudden death" in a medical sense, though, he may not be referring to a cardiac event. As a writer, I first checked this page because I was looking for a non-cardiac form of sudden death to use in a story.

Can we come up with a consensus for adding a (sourced) list of other forms of sudden death, such as ruptured berry aneurysm, stroke, heart attack, anaphylactic shock, etc.? Dr. Ed Friedlander, a board-certified pathologist who has an extensive website as the "Pathology Guy", has a list of (IIRC) 15 natural causes of sudden death (meaning death within an hour). --Charlene 06:53, 27 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Death Note[edit]

The line that says "Name written in a Death Note" does not belong in this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.119.62.26 (talk) 00:02, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sensationalist[edit]

Calling something sensationalist needs a citation at least, and would preferably be deleted. The last portion of the causes section smacks of someone with strong opinions on this subject who has let them filter into the article 192.198.151.37 (talk) 09:12, 4 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
