Sudden Death from Ischemic Heart Disease While Driving: Cardiac Pathology, Clinical Characteristics, and Countermeasures.

CONCLUSIONS Regular physical examination and information about ischemic heart disease should be emphasized for men aged 40 to 60 years who drive frequently, especially for those with hypertension, overwork, or previous myocardial infarction. Incorporating objective evaluation criteria for the severity of ischemic heart disease and overwork into health condition-related driving regulations is needed. PMID: 33495433 [PubMed - in process]
