(Deepshikha Gautam, Intern Journalist) Kanpur: First of All let us tell you that World Heart Day was started in the year 2000. At that time it was decided that World Heart Day would be celebrated on the last Sunday of September every year. But in 2014 date was set for it and since then World Heart Day started being celebrated on 29 September every year. Heart disease is also an important cause of death due to diseases worldwide, so it is important to have awareness among people about it.
About Heart Attack:
Blood accumulates in parts of the heart during a heart attack. In such a case, the longer treatment is received, the more damage will be done to the heart and body. Symptoms may also appear immediately and may be delayed. Like cardiac attack, Heart Attacks do not stop suddenly in a heart attack. A few hours and a few days after of heart attack, it has a bad effect.
About Cardiac Arrest :
In the case of cardiac arrest, the exchange of information in the inner parts of the heart becomes messed up. Due to this, the heart beat has a bad effect. It seeks to regularise and smooth the heart rate of the victim through Jacardiopulmonary resistance (CPR). According to health experts, people who have had a heart attack before, are more prone to cardiac arrest.
How is Cardiac arrest :
Cardiac arrest occurs suddenly, no warning could be received from the body. Usually, the electrical disturbances in the heart deteriorate the beat’s rhythm. Due to this, the heart’s ability to pump is affected and there is difficulty in getting blood to other parts of our heart, mind, or body. In such a short time, the person becomes unconscious and the pulse keeps going. If the right supportive treatment is not received at the right time, then cardiac arrest kills within minutes.
Both cardiac arrest and heart attack are deeply interwoven. Many times there is a possibility of cardiac arrest during a Heart Attack or even during its recovery. Since the Heartbeat in a Heart Attack does not stop immediately, the patient is more likely to be saved in a heart attack than in a cardiac arrest.
