RTH POLICIES & PUBLIC USE TERMS
Medical & Educational Disclaimer
Clear public boundaries for privacy, accessibility, youth protection, educational content, responsible innovation, and commerce across the Restarting The Heart ecosystem.
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.
