EDUCATION, RESEARCH & MEDICAL BOUNDARIES
Medical, Educational & Research Disclaimer
RTH education, testimony, research frameworks, practical resources, and technology development do not replace individualized medical care, diagnosis, treatment, emergency services, or professional clinical judgment.
Not medical care
RestartingTheHeart.com provides general education, lived-experience narrative, preparedness information, research communication, recovery concepts, leadership and resilience education, and public resources. It does not provide medical diagnosis, treatment, prescribing, psychotherapy, emergency monitoring, return-to-play clearance, or individualized clinical advice.
Do not delay or change professional medical care because of something on this website. For a medical emergency in the United States, call 911 or use the appropriate local emergency service.
No clinician-patient relationship
Using the site, downloading a resource, reading a founder story, attending a general educational program, or sending a website inquiry does not create a physician-patient, therapist-client, attorney-client, or other licensed professional relationship.
Neurocardiac Model™
The Neurocardiac Model™ is an evidence-informed, hypothesis-generating translational framework for organizing questions about cognitive-emotional inputs, central processing, autonomic dysregulation, neurohormonal response, recovery, and cardiac expression. It is not represented as a validated diagnostic, predictive, causal, or treatment standard.
SuperstarIQ
SuperstarIQ is in development and validation. Public descriptions of intended features are not a representation that a feature is clinically validated, commercially available, or approved as a medical device. Wearable, self-reported, and source data can be incomplete, delayed, inconsistent, or inaccurate.
Superstar Standard™
The Superstar Standard™ is an educational and developmental nine-pillar framework. It is not a medical, psychological, fitness-for-duty, academic-placement, employment, or return-to-play assessment.
CPR, AED, emergency, and service-animal resources
Public checklists and guides are designed to improve awareness and preparation. They do not replace certified CPR/AED training, an organization's emergency action plan, professional legal advice, or current rules from the agency or institution governing the situation.
Evidence and lived experience
Founder experiences and case-study observations may generate useful questions but do not establish general causation. Research summaries can change as evidence develops. Readers should distinguish personal narrative, hypothesis, observational evidence, peer-reviewed findings, guidelines, and validated clinical standards.
Questions about these terms or policies may be sent through the RTH contact page or to superstar@restartingtheheart.com.
