Cardiac Screening Takes Place Next Sat April 18th
Following on from the very successful 3rd Annual ArdnaSpéire Run which was held last month in memory of our dear friend Sandra Earley, Kiltubrid Ladies and Mens GAA clubs are delighted to be able to play a role in the fight against sudden adult death syndrome by offering cardiac screening to all our members to screen for potential heart abnormalities. The Cardiac screening service is available for all members between the ages of 14 and 40 for a contribution of just €10.
On average 1 in 300 people may have a cardiac abnormality, with the national register recently reported that the incidents of SADS are higher in Ireland than many other European countries. The GAA's Medical Scientific and Welfare Committee recommend cardiac screening for all players over the age of 14 years, and In Italy since cardiac screening has been made mandatory for those involved in competitive they have reduced the incidents of SADS by 89%.
Cardiac screening will take place in the Club rooms on Saturday April 18th 2015, and will be provided by Healthy Hearts, check out their website for more info. http://www.healthyheartshealthylives.com/
This is a wonderful opportunity to avail of Cardiac Screening so If you havn't yet booked a time please contact Áine on 0877963367
