Heart Attack In Men: Understanding Cardiac Health After 70
A heart attack is known as 'myocardial infarction' in the medical industry. The word 'myo' means muscle, while 'cardial' denotes heart. 'Infarction', on the other hand, refers to the death of tissue caused by insufficient blood supply. A heart attack is a condition which usually occurs when the blood supply to the heart is blocked suddenly due to complete blockage of the artery supplying blood to the cardiac muscles. This causes the heart muscle cells to die.
The blockage of an artery is often caused by plaque formation (deposition and hardening of fatty substances and cholesterol on the walls of arteries) resulting in coronary heart disease (CHD). If left untreated, it can be fatal.
