Know the Early Signs of a Heart Attack 
Heart disease is basically not a disease that comes suddenly, signs of heart disease have been seen at least one month before the attack took place. Unfortunately some people underestimate these symptoms and consider them to be a common problem.

Previously we learned how to deal with a heart attack when alone, we need to know the three types of heart problems that are most commonly faced by people, namely:
1. Cardiac Arrest (heart stops suddenly) 
If at one time you see a friend or family that looks healthy and suddenly dies suddenly so the chance he has cardiac arrest. The heart suddenly stops pumping blood because the heart's electricity does not work as it should. The attack came suddenly and there were always no initial symptoms that preceded it.

Cardiac arrest is not the same as a heart attack (although it can be caused by a heart attack) where blood flow to the heart muscle is interrupted.

2. Cardiac Arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat) 
Irregular heartbeat due to electrical problems in the heart that do not work properly causes the heart rate to become irregular, sometimes very fast and can be very slow.

Although Arrhythmia problems are generally not at risk, they can also cause death if the patient does not change his lifestyle to be healthier.

3. Heart attack 
A heart attack occurs when blood flow is not smooth going to the heart due to fat or cholesterol in the vessels. This situation causes amazing pain in the chest and spreads to the patient's arms and jaw. Medical action is needed as soon as possible to destroy the plaque that causes blood to be blocked.

In a state of emergency the patient is sometimes unhelpful because he is alone or the person he cared about does not know first aid in a heart attack patient.
