CAUSE A heart attack usually occurs when a blockage in a coronary artery results in limited or cut off blood flow to a part of the heart. If you cut off or reduced blood flow lasts more than a few minutes, the heart tissue will die. Pumping ability of the heart after a heart attack is directly related to the extent and location of tissue damage (infarct). If more than half of the damaged heart tissue, the heart can not function normally and the possibility of death.

Damaged heart can be enlarged, and partly an attempt to compensate for the ability of the heart that pumps it down (because of the larger heart will ...
