How does a heart attack come?
A heart attack is also called a myocardial infarction. A person gets a heart attack when the blood supply to the heart muscle is not done properly or stops. According to the Indian Express report, immediate treatment is needed to restart the blood flow. However, when immediate treatment is not available, the heart muscles keep on getting damaged and if the condition worsens, death also occurs. The process of heart attack is so fast that it is often impossible to reach immediate treatment. This is the reason why heart attack patients have a higher risk of death.
