Introducing the Canadian Sudden Cardiac Arrest Network (C-SCAN)

C-SCAN is a collaboration between the Cardiac Arrhythmia Network of Canada (CANet) and the Canadian Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium (CanROC). C-SCAN is supported by a 3 year Strategic Research Grant from CANet, as part of the Networks of Centres of Excellence (NCE).

The overall goal of C-SCAN is to measure the true scope of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) across Canada so that we can enable the prediction and prevention of these events by identifying key symptoms, risk factors, and triggers.

A National Network

C-SCAN is a national network of scientists, EMS agencies, cardiologists, emergency physicians, epidemiologists, coroners, medical examiners and patients from across Canada.

Our methodologies are multi-disciplinary, and our key strategies include patient engagement, integrated knowledge translation and strong mentorship for trainees. Through this exciting initiative we will continue to build the capacity and collaboration of SCA research conducted in Canada.
