Heart attacks on the rise among young people - Dr. Rajesh Thachathodiyil | Amrita Hospitals

"We have been hearing much news about young persons suddenly succumbing to a heart attack. These incidents have created a shock wave among youngsters in our country. Dr. Rajesh Thachathodiyl, Head and Professor, Department of Adult Cardiology is talking about how to prevent heart attacks or similar incidents in youngsters. A person might apparently look healthy and strong, but he might not be in the best of cardiac health. There are two situations that can occur; i) a person suddenly falling dead and ii) a person developing a heart attack and then succumbing to a heart attack. There are some conditions that are inherited. They are known as genetically acquired conditions, which predispose a young person to suddenly develop cardiac arrest. These conditions could be some abnormalities in heart muscles. There are also many other conditions that can predispose a young man to suddenly develop cardiac arrest. The second situation is a person developing a heart attack. This happens during intense physical activity or a person who is not accustomed to regular exercise when suddenly exercising on one fine day. This too can result in a heart attack." #HeartAttacks #CardiacEmergencies #AmritaHospitals
