It is when the heart stops beating unexpectedly and suddenly due to a problem with its electrical system, causing the blood to stop and no longer transport oxygen and nutrients to the body. So if you don’t act on time, the person can die. It affects any individual regardless of age, gender, and race, with or without heart conditions.
Go immediately to the ABC Emergency Room if you have any of these symptoms: Your life is at risk!
Prevention:
Although cardiac arrest occurs suddenly, you can help your body by adopting healthy habits such as:
It is impossible to diagnose since it happens suddenly and without warning. However, there are several tests that help determine if you are at risk of cardiac arrest. Your doctor will tell you which ones are necessary based on your medical history, family history, and symptoms, to assess your heart’s health.
When the heart stops, act immediately by providing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or use a defibrillator until emergency services arrive.
Post-cardiac arrest care includes medication, an implantable device, and other procedures to keep your heart healthy.
