*Westmont High School Heart Screening VolunteerVolunteerOn Monday, July 31, 2023 from 12:30 pm - 5:30 pm, the Kyle J. Taylor Foundation (KJTF) is proud to be partnering with Westmont High School to bring a heart screenings event to the Westmont HS community.

These screenings are so important! The current annual physical examinations or sports pre-participation physical exams miss about 85-90% of the issues that can cause Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) in children and young adults. The issues that cause SCA in young people must be seen on an electrocardiogram (EKG) because they are structural or electrical issues that cannot be heard through a stethoscope. The EKG is a simple test that records the electrical activity of the heart using small sticky electrode patches that are attached to the skin of the chest. EKGs are quick, easy and completely painless.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest Risk in Children and Young Adults:
- Leading cause of death of student athletes
- Leading cause of death on school campuses
- 1 in 300 youth have an undiagnosed heart condition that puts them at risk for SCA

Volunteer to assist with check-ins, greetings, check-outs, and clean-ups!
