A member asked:
My wife had an ischemic attack last sunday at 7 am, i called an ambulance and within an hour she was in the hospital getting a circumfex artery (they told 100 blocked) flushed and stent installed. was it on time enough to prevent serious heart damage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
That depends on multiple factors including the type of heart attack that she suffered. Her treating cardiologist should be able to give you an accurate answer. They will likely perform an echocardiogram in the hospital to assess for structural damage to the heart caused by the ischemic event.
