A member asked:
Chest cardiac arrest heart attack, can you tell me about this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heart attack: Cardiac arrest is when your heart stops. A heart attack is when part of your heart is not getting enough blood flow. A heart attack can certainly trigger a cardiac arrest. Sometimes that is the first and only symptom a person with coronary artery disease will have.
