Myocardial infarction is also known as heart attack, is a condition that occurs when the blood flow to the heart is suddenly restricted or stopped. This causes the heart muscles to lose its function and can be an emergency situation. Heart attacks are often considered life threatening as treatment needs to be provided almost immediately.
Myocardial infarction is considered a serious medical emergency that requires immediate medical assistance to avoid a fatality. Heart attack is a condition that occurs due to interrupted blood supply to the heart. Interruption in blood supply may be due to various reasons, the most common reason being the arteries have blockages. A lack of blood supply can lead to muscle death, and it eventually results in a heart attack that will require emergency heart attack treatment at a hospital nearby.

As one begins to notice attack symptoms, it is important to bring the person that experienced the heart attack to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment. After proper analyses of the condition and a few diagnostic tests, the specialist may recommend treatment that well suits the patient’s condition.


The cardiologist can also recommend medications to give the patient a quick recovery and relief.
Treatment for heart attack involves angioplasty and bypass surgery. Angioplasty is a procedure that utilizes a balloon and a stent to treat the condition in balloon angioplasty where a blown balloon is passed through the arteries to break the blockages. Stent is placed in conditions where there is a high chance of recurrence. Bypass is a complex surgery where the blockages are removed and the arteries are kept in place.
