Heart failure
Description
Many people who have suffered from cardiac arrest live in constant fear of complete heart failure. This program makes clear that, for the average heart attack survivor, nothing could be further from the truth. Viewers will learn about current procedures and treatments, including exercise, state-of-the-art medications, and heart transplants, that have helped heart attack patients live healthy, normal lives-even when patients are also undergoing other treatments such as chemotherapy. Interviews with veteran cardiologists, researchers, and patients form illuminating case studies-providing ample evidence that, despite the ominous name, a heart attack doesn't have to be a death sentence.
