What exactly happens during a heart attack? How does it differ from a cardiac arrest? Join us for a compelling discussion with two of the brightest minds in cardiology and anesthesiology, Dr. Yash Lokhandwala and Dr. Manju Sinha. They break down these critical conditions, detailing that heart attacks result from blocked blood supply causing damage to the heart muscle, whereas cardiac arrests involve the heart coming to a complete stop. You'll learn about the evolution of CPR, which now places greater emphasis on chest compressions for maximum efficacy.

Discover the far-reaching impact of the Revive Heart Foundation, co-founded by our esteemed guests. This foundation has trained hundreds of thousands of people across India, from police officers to railway personnel and students, to effectively respond to cardiac arrests. Dr. Manju and Dr Kinjal share heartwarming stories of success and emphasize the importance of immediate action, moving away from outdated methods like checking the pulse. Dr. Yash addresses the increasing prevalence of cardiac arrests, linking it to diabetes, high blood pressure, urban pollution, and the lingering effects of the COVID pandemic.

We also delve into the psychological aftermath of cardiac arrest, underscoring the intense trauma both survivors and bystanders can experience. Our conversation highlights the urgent need for integrating CPR and AED training into educational curricula and everyday life. By debunking the myth that only medical professionals can perform CPR, we aim to empower listeners with the knowledge and confidence to act in emergencies. Through the tireless efforts of experts like Dr. Yash and Dr. Manju, we move closer to making India a cardiac-safe country.
