What Causes a Heart Attack?

Heart attacks result from coronary artery disease (CAD) which is characterized by narrowing or blocking of blood supply arteries to the heart as a result of cholesterol build up referred to as plaques. These plaques may gradually grow, narrow the arteries and when the plaque gets damaged, a blood clot forms which warns the artery and cause a heart attack. Factors that also play part in complicating it are hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and poor lifestyle.

At Macie Medical, we offer regular health screenings to identify these heart risk factors early, ensuring that patients receive the necessary guidance to manage their heart health proactively.

Risk Factors for a Heart Attack

Common risk factors include:

  • High blood pressure:
    This can damage arteries and accelerate the buildup of plaque.
  • High cholesterol:
    Excess cholesterol can accumulate in the arteries, increasing the risk of blockages.
  • Smoking:
    Smoking damages the lining of the arteries and reduces oxygen in the blood.
  • Diabetes:
    High blood sugar levels can harm the blood vessels and increase heart attack risk.
  • Obesity:
    Excess weight can strain the heart and lead to other risk factors such as high blood pressure and diabetes.
  • Family history:
    A family history of heart disease can increase your risk.

At our clinic, we focus on managing these risk factors through routine check-ups, education, and care plans designed to improve overall heart health.

  • Fatigue
  • Cold sweat
  • Breathing difficulties or shortness of breath
  • Chest pain and aching
  • Discomfort at the shoulder, arm, back, neck, or upper belly
