This bill proposes the creation of a new section in the North Dakota Century Code focused on cardiac arrest prevention and education for student athletes and coaches. It defines "athletic activity" to include interscholastic athletics, competitions associated with schools, and practices for these activities. The bill mandates the superintendent of public instruction to develop resources, including an information sheet on cardiac arrest symptoms, a verification form for students and their guardians, and a list of educational materials.

Additionally, the bill outlines specific requirements for coaches, including completing a cardiac arrest training course and holding informational meetings about the symptoms and warning signs of sudden cardiac arrest. Coaches are empowered to remove students from participation if they exhibit symptoms, and students must receive medical clearance before returning to athletic activities. The bill also allows sponsors of recreational youth athletic activities to adopt these guidelines.
