Heart attacks

How to survive a heart attack when alone.

 

Since many people are alone when they suffer a heart attack without help, the person whose heart is beating improperly and who begins to feel faint, has only about ten seconds left before losing consciousness.

WARNIGN SIGNS :

Suddenly you start experiencing severe pain in your chest and that starts to drag out into your arm and up in to your jaw.

 

 

• The victims can help themselves by coughing repeatedly and vigorously. A deep breath should taken before each cough, and the cough must be deep and prolonged, as when producing sputum from deep inside the chest.
• A breath and a cough must be repeated about every two seconds without let-up until help arrives, or until the heart is felt to be beating normally again
• Deep breaths get oxygen into the lungs and deep movements squeeze the heart and keep the blood circulating. The squeezing pressure on the heart also helps it regain normal rhythm.
