HEALTH GUIDE REFERENCE FROM A.D.A.M
Myocardial infarction is the technical name for a heart attack. The heart is responsible for pumping blood, which carries oxygen, to every organ in the body – including the heart itself. A heart attack occurs when an artery leading to the heart becomes completely blocked and the heart doesn’t get enough blood or oxygen.
