What is a heart attack?
A heart attack occurs when the supply of blood to a part of the heart is suddenly blocked, usually by a blood clot.You can make a complete recovery after a heart attack, but this can depend on how much of the heart is influenced.

Give them an aspirin tablet (300 mg) and ask them to chew it slowly.
- Do not give aspirin to the accident if they are younger than 16, or if they are allergic to it.
