Every 40 seconds, a person in the U.S. has a heart attack. But while heart attacks are common, most people still have misunderstandings and general lack of knowledge about them.
Once you’ve been diagnosed with a heart attack, your doctor will usually recommend that you undergo a procedure called a cardiac catheterization, Eubany says. Cardiac catheterization involves your doctor going through your groin with a catheter and looking at the blood vessels of your heart to determine where the blockage is.
But if the damage is more severe, you may need bypass surgery, which Eubany likens to taking a detour around a traffic jam, which is the blocked artery.“A heart attack is not a death sentence,” Eubany says. “Treatment for a heart attack is much more advanced these days than they used to be.” More people now than in the past survive heart attacks and lead normal lives, she says, but timing matters.
