Most individuals confuse a cardiac arrest with a heart attack. The following guide will help clear the same and save lives.
Understanding the difference:
Heart attacks and cardiac arrests are caused by two very different stimulators. The first one is caused by a blocked artery, whereas cardiac arrests are caused by an electric malfunction in the heart which stops a heartbeat from occurring. When this happens, the heart stops pumping blood to the brain and other vital organs. The latter can be life-threatening if not addressed timely. It is caused by certain types of arrhythmias that prevent the heart from pumping normally. The main cause of cardiac arrests is ventricular fibrillation or ventricular tachycardia, one type of arrhythmia.
Important risk factors for cardiac arrests are:

  1. Previous history of the same
  2. Coronary heart disease
  3. Heart valve disease
  4. Congenital heart defects, and
  5. Arrhythmias caused by faulty genes
    More often than not, it is caused by little to no knowledge of the patient having a heart disease. To rule out this, it is important to get regular checkups with the best cardiologists in Bangalore at Trust-in Hospital.
