Abstract

The deceased was a man in his early 30’s who collapsed unexpectedly at work. He had a family history of sudden cardiac death not otherwise specified, and was recently diagnosed with hypertension, but was not compliant with his medications. He worked in a kitchen and was taken to hospital after collapsing during his shift. Despite resuscitation efforts, he passed away shortly after admission. There was no indication of a drug and alcohol related death, or death from trauma or violence. The death was referred for coronial investigation and a postmortem examination was authorized.
