A warm up will reduce the likelihood of cardiac ischemia with sudden intense physical effort.

True

Commotio cordis is not exclusive to sports.

True

Ideally, each athletic venue for practices, games, or other athletics events should have an AED available within 1 minute of the venue.

True

Increased risk for commotio cordis is seen with those who have a decreased compliance of the chest wall.

True

It is recommended by NATA to obtain athlete's sickle cell trait status before allowing participation in sports.

True

Larger objects have trended to distribute the energy of impact and therefore have produced fewer episodes of ventricular fibrillation.

True

NFHS has the power to mandate health and safety policy changes at the high school level.

True

No child should return to physical activity unless the child has managed to return to school.

True

Previous studies suggest that female gender protects against SCD.
