New research has found that half of people have visible signs of a heart attack the day before, and the differences vary greatly between men and women.
Researchers at the Smidt Heart Institute at Cedars-Sinai, a nonprofit health research institute in Los Angeles, found that fatal heart attacks are often preceded by shortness of breath in women and chest tightness in men. pain phenomenon.
The research team published a study in the journal Lancet Digital Health and pointed out that two less common pre-morbid signs that appear in both genders are: seizure-like and abnormal sweating.
The report said that if the unique and obvious “pre-morbid signs” of male and female patients can be understood, the patients themselves or the medical team have the opportunity to prevent heart attacks, whose fatality rate is as high as 90%.
Summet Chugh, the lead investigator of the research team, said that by grasping these warning signs and effectively judging whether to call 911 and other treatment sequences, we can intervene early and prevent immediate death from the disease. “This team’s research may help form a new health care model and prevent sudden death from heart disease.”
Chagg’s team analyzed data on heart attacks in California and Oregon, with patients ranging in age from 18 to 85 years old. The team also compared data from people who did not have heart disease but showed the same signs.
As a result, researchers said that people who noticed the signs of illness and called for help before they fainted from a heart attack were five times more likely to survive through death than those who did not notice the signs of illness.

The report points out, “Warning signs are very helpful in predicting an imminent heart attack, but supporting measures are needed to fully exert their predictive function.”
