Taking Action when Heart Attack Occur

Heart Attack A heart attack happens when your heart cannot get enough oxygen because the blood flow is abruptly disrupted. The heart muscle cannot pump properly, and tissue rapidly begins to die. However, only about 27% of people know all the urgent symptoms of a heart attack.

Contact Emergency Services Immediately

Emergency services will speed up your admittance into the hospital vs. driving to the emergency room yourself. Call an ambulance. Do not drive to the hospital yourself unless you have no other option available.

Stop All Activity

Sit down and rest. Try to keep calm by breathing evenly as best as you can. Loosen any tight clothing, such as shirt collars and belts.

Take Aspirin

Chewing and swallowing an aspirin can help break up the blood clot or blockage contributing to the heart attack.

Visit a doctor If your symptoms improve within five minutes, see your doctor. A heart attack can leave clots in your bloodstream that can cause more health problems, such as a future heart attack or stroke
