Summary

TLDRUne crise cardiaque survient lorsqu'une artère coronaire se bloque, empêchant le sang oxygéné d'atteindre le muscle cardiaque. Cela est souvent causé par des dépôts graisseux qui durcissent et rétrécissent les artères. Les signes comprennent des douleurs thoraciques, un essoufflement et des nausées. Si le blocage n'est pas traité, des cellules cardiaques meurent. On peut débloquer l'artère par angioplastie ou chirurgie de pontage. Mais il vaut mieux prévenir en mangeant sainement, faisant de l'exercice et gérant son stress. Une crise cardiaque peut survenir sans avertissement. Connaître les signes et les facteurs de risque peut sauver des vies.
