First of all, sudden death is a very serious disease among human beings. At ordinary times, people are very healthy, but unexpected situations will occur. In a short period of time, people will die because of natural diseases or sudden death.

Secondly, there is no unified standard for the specific quantitative time from onset to death. Some people think that the time from onset to death is within 1 hour, 6 hours, 12 hours and 24 hours, while others think that it also includes the death within 48 hours. According to the World Health Organization, the time is within six hours, but that's just the saying of one family. At present, it is generally accepted that sudden cardiac death is the main cause of death within one hour of onset.

Finally, sudden death is a sudden occurrence, the occurrence time is unpredictable, that is to say, the patient did not appear signs of imminent death, so no one thought that the patient would die, but the death happened.
