Supporting Families. Saving Lives.
The SADS Foundation provides information to and education of medical professionals. We maintain an active physician education program through our network of researchers, who continually inform and train physicians to diagnose and treat SADS conditions, through seminars, conferences and medical journal publications. We are also reaching out to primary health care professionals, including pediatric, emergency and family practitioners to provide them with the tools to recognize cardiac arrhythmias, to refer appropriately and to rely on the SADS Foundation for credible information and family support. We provide physicians, nurses and other health professionals with the most recent breakthroughs and clinical updates about diagnosing and treating channelopathies.
