of 35. there is no predominant reason. it could be due to an electrical problem in the heart, it could be due to some sort of anatomical problem, that has not yet been diagnosed. there can be a variety of things, but those are the major distinctions, boris. >> and sanjay, as andy alluded to, there have previously been basketball players that have been in similar situations with cardiac arrest. many of them have been able to get back on the court, so what does the recovery look like now for bronny? >> well, they've got to sort out what happened here. so, as andy was talking about, i think one of the big headlines, obviously, other than the fact that bronny had this sudden cardiac arrest is that he is already out of the intensive care unit. that's really important piece of information, because as you may remember with damar hamlin, it was a few days. with other players, it's often been a few days before they get out of the intensive care unit there's still this period of instability, where they're not sure if the heart is going to go
bronny james. >> and sanjay, there is an important distinction between cardiac arrest and heart attack. walk us through the difference. >> so, simply put, sudden cardiac arrest, that means your heart has stopped. it just stops beating. and that can be for a variety of reasons. someone will lose consciousness, they're not getting blood flow to their brain. they oftentimes may need a defibrillator to restore the electrical rhythm to the heart. with a heart attack, because of a blockage in some of the blood vessels that give blood to the heart, the heart muscle itself is not getting enough blood flow, and that heart muscle can begin to die. that can lead to a cardiac arrest, so ultimately, it can lead to the same sort of thing, but there may be very different causes for one versus the other. sudden cardiac arrest, again, more common. you'll see that in younger people. so, for example, over the age of 35, if someone has a cardiac arrest. it's typically more likely due to a heart attack under the age
with this at all practices, all sports, and certainly in all games. >> and quickly, sanjay, what does recovery look like? >> well, it'll depend on what actually caused this. but as andy is talking about, there are certainly players who have come back from this. if this was an electrical abnormality and he can have that treated. i will tell you it's really good that he was taken out of the icu as quickly as he was. we don't know exactly what the underlying problem is. but that bodes well, wolf, because it says that he is stable, and they're going to figure out what actually happened here. >> we of course wish him a very speedy recovery. guys, thanks for joining us. coming up on "erin burnett outfront" right at the top of the hour, new details about vladimir putin's reaction in the first hours of the attempted coup. that's coming up 7:00 p.m. eastern. and we'll be right back.
blood vessels. let me just show you here. when someone as young as bronny james, someone has a cardiac arrest, which means their heart just stops, it could be that there is an anatomical abnormality with the muscle of the heart. or there could have been an electrical disturbance. the heart has got electricity always pumping through it to make sure that the chambers pump in some fashion, regular fashion. if those don't work for some reason, that can lead to cardiac arrest. they're going to figure this out hopefully, wolf, what happened to him. >> our team is doing a better job right now to prepare for health risks like this. >> yeah. and, first of all, as sanjay knows better than anyone on this network, every situation is different. every individual and situation that occurs. i mean, already in the last year at usc, it's unbelievable. vincent, a player for the trojans last year at this time had a very similar incident. he was not allowed to play.
really something as simple as needing a different test or a different image to look at a possibility that they were not considering. i mean, isn't that really what it comes down to in so many of these cases, is that doctors need to be thinking outside of this idea of what they think it may be and need to test the hypothesis? >> what happened with alice was horrific because first of all they wouldn't give us image lg. we were asking for imaging, can we get an x-ray or sonogram, and they would don't it. we don't need it, they said. sanjay talked about diagnostic momentum, for lack of a better term, buying into a narrative, we believe this is a virus, therefore we don't need that data because we've decided it's this and getting on that train of it's a virus, it's a virus, and ignoring other evidence suggesting something else.
dr. david newman toker. he's somebody who after this incident happened and after alice recovered anded a her appendix out looked into her case on behalf of johnson & johnson hopkins. it's harrowing. what happens is, in the study the doctor looks at 800,000 americans either died or severely disabled because of diagnostic error, which he says happens about 111% of the time. most of the time it's not death or serious disability, but 371,000 people died according to this study, 424,000 sustained permanent disability such as brain damage, blindness, loss of organs, limbs, or metastasized cancer. this is a serious issue. it doesn't make the doctor popular among his colleagues, but it's a serious issue. i'll be talking about it with sanjay coming up. >> it's hard being told that you're messing up. but we look at your daughter, and in this case, when it was
