PEREZ, América; RESNIK, Miguel  y  GONZALEZ ZUELGARAY, Jorge. Sudden death in sport: Legal aspects on prevention. Insuf. card. [online]. 2010, vol.5, n.1, pp.17-24. ISSN 1852-3862.

Prevention of sudden death during sports promotes only transient concern in the majority of countries when an athlete dies in the field. Currently, it is difficult to accept the absence of a consensus-based systematic approach which balances the need to prevent these dramatic deaths with the availability of resources. In an organized community, only the law warranties the continuity of decisions. However, this is not just a problem in Argentina as in the majority of developed countries there is not a proper regulation. This article analyzes legal aspects and takes the Italian regulation (the only one endorsed by long-term results) as a model for a local proposal.

Palabras clave : Sudden death; Sports; Legal aspects.
