First we must remember that the heart is a muscle pump, and like all muscles in the human body provides food and oxygen blood flowing in the arteries stretching and branching inside the heart muscle and called coronary arteries. The problem begins when clots are formed inside a coronary artery and blood flow stops across the artery, leading to partial heart muscle failure to get food and oxygen (heart clots). With time and the absence of oxygen and food-carrying blood flow from a part of the muscle tissue of the heart, this part begins to die. The angina expression is used to denote the death of part of the muscle tissue as a result of depriving it of oxygenated blood (angina). If there is no intervention to prevent the death of more muscle tissue of the heart, the condition may extend to the death of a large part of the tissue of the heart muscle, resulting in the inability of the heart to perform its function and fall into heart failure and heart failure (heart failure). This progressive deterioration is called a “heart attack” and can be interfered with at any stage of the disease.
Some reasons increase the risk of heart attack :
*Smoking.
*High cholesterol in the blood.
*Hypertension.
*Weight gain and obesity.
*The unhealthy food is high in fat and high in salts.
*Lack of exercise.
*High blood sugar.
It is worth mentioning that the medical follow-up of these factors and the avoidance of them plays a major role in the prevention of heart attack.
**Age, the risk of a heart attack increases for men as early as age 45, and for women aged 55.
**Family history of the disease increases the likelihood of a heart attack in people belonging to families with recurrent heart health crises and problems.
**In pregnant women, non-treatment with high blood pressure can lead to heart attack.
Symptoms of heart attack :
>A feeling of pain, tightness, weight and pressure on the chest.
>Pain in arm, back, perjury or jaw.
>A feeling of dyspepsia or heartburn in the upper part of the abdomen.
>Sweat, vomiting and dizziness.
>General weakness, tension and breathing disorders.
>Rapid and irregular heartbeat.
These symptoms of heart attack are real if they continue for 30 minutes, without improvement despite resting and taking sublingual nitroglycerin. Heart attack may occur in a symptom-free form of a silent heart attack, although it may occur in anyone but is more common in people with diabetes.
Treatment of heart attack in the hospital
With every minute that passes after a heart attack, heart tissue is deprived of oxygen and its condition deteriorates or dies. Rapidly restoring blood flow is the ideal way to prevent the heart from ruining.

Pharmaceutical
_Aspirin. The 911 may advise you to take aspirin, or your emergency service provider may give aspirin immediately. Aspirin reduces blood clotting, which helps keep the blood flowing in the narrow artery.
-Drugs for Thrombosis. These drugs, which are also called A-thrombotic solvents, help to dissolve the blood clot that prevents blood flow to your heart. The more drugs you take thrombosis early after a heart attack, the more chance you will survive from the least damage to the heart.
-Anticoagulant agents. Emergency doctors may give you other drugs to prevent new clots and prevent strokes that are already growing. This includes drugs such as clopidogrel (Plavix) and other drugs called platelet blockers.
-Other drugs to increase blood liquidity. Other drugs, such as heparin, are likely to be taken to reduce blood viscosity and possible clot formation. Heparin will be given intravenously or by subcutaneous injection.
-Nitroglycerin. This medicine is used to treat chest pain (angina) and can help improve blood flow to the heart by expanding (extending) the blood vessels.
-Beta blockers. These drugs help stretch your heart muscle, slow down your pulse, and lower blood pressure so your heart can function easily. Beta blockers can reduce the amount of damage to your heart and prevent heart attacks from happening in the future.
