the difference between cardiac arrest and heart attack....

in medical •  7 years ago 

Sudden cardiac arrest is not the same as a heart attack!!

Sudden cardiac arrest occurs when electrical impulses in the heart become rapid or chaotic, which causes the heart to suddenly stop beating.

A heart attack occurs when the blood supply to part of the heart muscle is blocked. A heart attack may cause cardiac arrest!
