Cardiac Arrest (Alexander Dale Oen)

Our class has been learning about a man, Alexander Dale Oen, who has died from a cardiac arrest. He was a great Norwegian swimmer. It was very unusual, because he was only 26 years old. Alexander was a fit man. A cardiac arrest is a abrupt cessation of heartbeat.  It means when something is wrong with your heart. You get a cardiac arrest from the abrupt loss of heart function. Many people die from cardiac arrest.
