To understand the epidemiologic and clinical characteristics of the "Yunnan unknown-cause sudden cardiac death (YUSCD)".
Cases of YUSCD occurred in 2002-2004 were investigated with cross-sectional study. Clinical manifestation was observed and analyzed.
The YUSCD areas were mountainous and most of the YUSCD cases appeared between June and August. Most of the YUSCD cases were young farmers and showed family/village clustering nature. Most of the patients died quickly with only few recovered. The overall incidence of YUSCD was 1.83% with mortality as 1.51%. The fatality rate of YUSCD appeared to be 78.1%.
The YUSCD cases had a clustering feature along with time and area. The clinical manifestation of YUSCD could not be specifically identified, making the clinical diagnosis and treatment difficult when practicing in the fields that called for further studies on epidemiology, clinical work and etiology.
了解“云南不明原因猝死（YUSCD）”的流行病学及临床特征。
采用横断面研究方法，对2002 - 2004年发生的YUSCD病例进行调查，观察并分析临床表现。
YUSCD地区多为山区，多数YUSCD病例出现在6月至8月。多数YUSCD病例为年轻农民，呈现家族/村落聚集性。多数患者迅速死亡，仅有少数康复。YUSCD的总发病率为1.83%，死亡率为1.51%。YUSCD的病死率似乎为78.1%。
YUSCD病例在时间和地区上具有聚集特征。YUSCD的临床表现无法特异性识别，在现场实践中给临床诊断和治疗带来困难，需要对流行病学、临床工作及病因学进行进一步研究。
