Millions of people worldwide die from cardiovascular diseases.
Cardiologist Anna Biryukova explained what disorders can lead to sudden cardiac death.
Sudden cardiac death is a condition in which the heart suddenly stops beating. However, there may be various reasons before this.
It is caused by diseases such as SCD, ischemic disease, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and shortened PQ interval syndrome.
The most dangerous symptom of ischemic disease is acute myocardial infarction. Symptoms: burning, almost unbearable pain behind the breastbone lasting more than 15-20 minutes, weakness, fear of death, cold sweat, LIFE says.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is characterized by severe thickening of the heart walls. Most cases are hereditary. As a result, a fatal arrhythmia develops, triggering the SCD mechanism. Symptoms occur in people aged 20-40 and are associated with physical activity. These include chest pain and discomfort, palpitations, shortness of breath, fainting, and dizziness.
Short PQ interval syndrome includes Wolf-Parkinson-White syndrome (WPV syndrome) as well as Clerk-Levy-Christesco syndrome (CLC syndrome). The shortening of this interval is due to the presence of additional conduction bundles in the heart’s conduction system.
