Your DNA Might Be Hiding a Silent Risk
Key Causes of Sudden Cardiac Death
Genetic Mutations
Variants in genes like KCNQ1, SCN5A, and MYH7 can silently increase your risk.
Inherited Heart Conditions
Linked disorders include:
- Long QT Syndrome (LQTS)
- Brugada Syndrome
- Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM)
- Cardiomyopathies
- Arrhythmias
- Metabolic & Genetic Syndromes
- Congenital & Structural Heart Defects
- Aortic & Vascular Conditions
Who Needs This Test?
You should get tested if:
Individuals with symptoms and those without, as a proactive step toward future heart health.
- You’ve experienced blackouts, fainting, or seizures
- You have a family history of unexplained sudden deaths
- You're a young athlete or engage in intense workouts
- A loved one has been diagnosed with a cardiac disorder
- There’s a history of pacemakers/ICDs in the family
What does the SCA test for?
- Screening of 30+ genes linked to SCD
- NGS-based sequencing for accurate and fast results
- Identification of pathogenic & likely pathogenic variants
- Clinical interpretation + expert genetic counseling support
- Option for family cascade screening
Every Minute Counts. Every Gene Tells a Story.
Sudden Cardiac Death (SCD) strikes without warning—and for many, it’s the first and last symptom of an undiagnosed heart condition.
In India:
- Over 1.5 million people die every year due to Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA)
- SCA causes 10% of all deaths in the country
- It’s now hitting younger adults, with more than 50% of cases below age 50
India is on Alert. Are You?
SCD is becoming the leading cardiac killer of young adults in India. But early detection through genetic testing can reduce mortality by up to 50%.

FAQ Frequently Asked Questions
- SCD is an unexpected, fatal loss of heart function due to underlying cardiac conditions—often without prior warning.
- Yes! That’s the point— SCD often occurs in people with no symptoms. Early detection is key.
- A simple blood sample is collected at one of our centers or from your home.
- No. This test detects genetic conditions that cause sudden cardiac arrest, not lifestyle-related heart attacks.
- Our clinical team will help you with next steps—which may include lifestyle changes, medications, further testing, or family screening.
- Absolutely. If a genetic mutation is found, first-degree relatives can also be screened and protected.
