Original Note:
Damar Hamlin received a blunt impact to the chest. Cardiac arrest from this is called Commotio Cordis. "Commotio Cordis refers to the sudden arrhythmic death caused by a low/mild chest wall impact." This athlete did not "drop suddenly" for no reason as implied by Dr Drew. https://www.ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.1161/circep.111.962712 https://emedicine.medscape.com/article/902504-overview https://ksi.uconn.edu/emergency-conditions/cardiac-conditions/commotio-cordis/
