Cardiac arrest: Cardiac arrest happens when the heart receives some insult that causes it not to beat. This can be from heart damage, ischemic , infection, trauma, enviromental. At 32 your best way to prevent cardiac arrest is to stay active and maintain a good lifestyle. If you do have a family history of cardiac problems at less than 40 have a discussion with a cardiologist.
