Let's explore this in detail: Chairman of Cardiac Sciences at Fortis Hospital explains that today, people place too much importance on rest, which is not good for health under any circumstances. Furthermore, avoiding pollution is crucial. One also needs to be mindful of the home environment. He explained that in the event of a heart attack, the first hour is crucial to prevent risk, but for a heart patient, every minute counts. Keep these things in mind in the event of a heart attack The sooner a heart patient reaches the hospital, the sooner treatment can begin, and the sooner they can recover and return home. In the event of a heart attack, it is essential to reach the nearest hospital and seek treatment without wasting time. Once stabilized after receiving first aid, the patient can then consult a trusted hospital or doctor if they wish. Those who exercise or engage in gyms should focus on their regular diet rather than consuming extra food from outside. Parents should pay attention from childhood Include nutritious foods like lentils, porridge, soybeans, etc. in their diet. The doctor explained that if children between three and four years of age experience persistent coughs, colds, fevers, fatigue, or stunted growth, parents should be alert. Such children should definitely have an ECG and 2D echocardiography done. Furthermore, if blood flow in the coronary arteries is affected, it is called a blockage. This can lead to a heart attack or cardiac arrest. This weakens the heart's pumping. Keep an eye on these symptoms To prevent heart disease, it is important to have regular heart checkups after the age of 25. Blood flow must be maintained. Coronary artery disease (CAD) can cause heart attacks. If symptoms such as fatigue, excessive sweating, shortness of breath, or anxiety occur, consult a doctor immediately. People of all ages should maintain their cholesterol levels. If you experience pain in your arms or chest, or from your jaw to your navel, you should be cautious.
