Pain in the chest or shoulder, nausea, unhealthy complexion. Experts say that there is no asymptomatic death from cardiac arrest, the main thing is to correctly identify these symptoms.

Cardiologists from the cardiovascular disease clinic in Palm Beach (USA) reported that most victims of sudden heart attacks received warning signals before the event. Doctors have revealed which symptoms can indicate that a person is likely to have a heart attack.

Researchers analyzed data on the symptoms and illnesses of nearly 600 men aged 35 to 65 who had experienced cardiac arrest. This analysis helped identify some symptoms that appear as warning signs of an impending attack. Here is their list:

• chest pain,
• shoulder pain,
• shortness of breath,
• dizziness,
• nausea,
• fainting,
• altered heartbeat,
• a sharp increase in blood pressure,
• unhealthy complexion,
• sudden severe fatigue.

“About 80% of symptoms appeared in the period from four weeks to an hour before sudden cardiac arrest,” the doctors said.

If these symptoms appear, especially if they appear at once in a “bouquet” in the form of a complex of symptoms, you should definitely seek an examination, experts noted.
