Cardiac arrest, heart attack are most frightening disorders to men. Livorno player playing in Italian Serie B, Piermario Morosini, 25 died on April 14, 2012 after a cardiac arrest attack during a match again Pescara. Without his body contacting other players, he collapsed suddenly, then stood up but unstable and went down again.
Cardiac arrest is cessation of the effective pumping action of the heart. During a cardiac arrest, the heart may be beating rapidly without pumping any blood, or it may stop beating completely. Cardiac arrest is marked by an abrupt loss of consciousness and absence of breathing or pulse.
On the other hand, a heart attack occurs if the flow of oxygen-rich blood to a section of heart muscle suddenly becomes blocked. If blood flow isn't restored quickly, the section of heart muscle begins to die. Heart attack treatment works best when it's given right after symptoms occur.
Is cardiac arrest the same as heart attack? No. A heart attack refers to death of heart muscle tissue due to the loss of blood supply, not necessarily resulting in the death of the heart attack victim.
Whereas, cardiac arrest is caused when the heart's electrical system malfunctions. In cardiac arrest death results when the heart suddenly stops working properly. This is caused by abnormal, or irregular, heart rhythms. This can be when the heart's lower chambers suddenly start beating chaotically and don't pump blood. Death occurs within minutes after the heart stops. Cardiac arrest may be reversed if CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is performed or a defibrillator is used to shock the heart and restore a normal heart rhythm within a few minutes.
Things to do to reduce risks against the attacks, as experts put it, include at least to eat a diet that is rich in fruit, vegetables and whole grains. Eat plenty of fish while avoiding fatty meats. Keep salt intake at a minimum. Exercise for 30 to 60 minutes daily. Keep our heart rate within its target zone. Consult with a physician if we're just beginning an exercise regime. If we're somewhat heavy, try to lose some weight. Fat can block up our arteries that lead to the heart disorders.
Keep our du'aa or supplication regularly.
Is exercise relevant since looking at this vigorous sportsmen have been attacked as well? Never mind, keep on exercise, the best activity we can do.
Luckily another footballer, Fabrice Muamba, 24 is now recuperating. aseammm@gmail.com
