Seattle Seahawks and Virginia Mason Franciscan Health Team Up with the Nick of Time Foundation to Prevent Sudden Cardiac Arrest in Local Youth
Screenings include a heart health survey and family history, blood pressure reading and physical exam, and an electrocardiogram (EKG or ECG), a noninvasive test that measures activity of the heart. An on-site echocardiogram is conducted in cases with a positive finding on history, physical exam, or EKG. Participants will also receive instruction on “hands-only” CPR and how to use an automated external defibrillator (AED) to assist with CPR.
“We’re incredibly proud to partner with the Seattle Seahawks and the Nick of Time Foundation to bring this comprehensive heart screening event to our community,” says Ketul J. Patel, CEO of Virginia Mason Franciscan Health and President of CommonSpirit Health’s Northwest Region. “This event provides crucial preventative care, allowing for early detection and treatment of potential heart conditions. The success of last year’s event, which identified several cases needing follow-up, underscores the vital role these screenings play in keeping our kids healthy and active.”
Early screening and detection saves lives. According to the Nick of Time Foundation, the leading cause of death in young athletes on the playing field is an undetected heart condition. The 2024 screening event resulted in more than 500 youth screened with 12 abnormal results, allowing these students to seek appropriate follow-up care.
More information about the screening event can be found at vmfh.org/Seahawks.
About the Nick of Time Foundation
Based in Mill Creek, WA, the vision of Nick of Time Foundation was created in memory of Nick Varrenti, a multi-sport athlete who suffered a sudden cardiac arrest and died at age 16. Nick of Time programs work together to help protect our young people and communities by providing heart health awareness for young people, early detection of undiagnosed heart abnormalities, and emergency action planning for schools and communities that includes CPR/AED education.

Winter weather makes travel difficult for Virginia drivers: 'Take it easy'

RICHMOND, Va. — Winter weather made travel quite tricky for Virginians on Tuesday.
Stranded on the side of the road is a situation Liam Gorman didn’t expect to be in Tuesday afternoon.
He got stuck in the wintry Richmond road conditions during his drive home.
“I just started slipping, like, my rear wheels started slipping a little,” Gorman said. “It wasn’t too fun. I started, like, drifting to the side a little bit, and then I just kind of pulled over.”
Lafaylafier Delonte also got caught up in similar conditions. He was headed home on the interstate from work in Williamsburg.
“I seen eight accidents. And hope, hope, you know, everybody made it back home. They got hurt. Too bad,” Delonte said. “I did like, 45 on the way back. And I’ll let people pass me a couple cars that pass. Man, like, look at them and a couple cars, that were riding fast wrecked.”
CBS 6 also spoke to Go Puff driver Anthony Brown. He delivers items to customers all over the region.
“It’s pretty slippery out there,” Brown said. “It’s hazardous getting in and out of neighborhoods, like my cars are four wheel drive so kind of like slipping a little.”
Brown said he decided to cut his day short and that the deteriorating road conditions were not worth the chance of getting into a crash.
“So trying to take it slow, to not go into the night, because, you know, it’s gonna freeze over tonight. So just trying to be safe,” Brown said.
State police said there were 700 accidents in Virginia due to the winter weather, which are statistics these drivers don’t want to part be of as they try to get home from work and work to do their part to stay off the roads the rest of Tuesday night. A
“Take it easy, going to the speed limit. Don’t do anything hectic, or try to make a risky move,” Brown said.
“I’m not going to rush to get nowhere. Wherever I’m going to be will be there. And life is nothing to play with,” Delonte said.
