This 3D animation depicts how Tim Russert’s fatal heart attack most likely occurred. It is based on the preliminary autopsy findings released today (6/15/08). Mr. Russert ruptured a “vulnerable” coronary plaque in his left anterior descending coronary artery (also known as the “LAD”) which supplies blood to the anterior wall of the left ventricle, the main pumping chamber. The rupture caused immediate formation of a large blood clot (thrombus) which totally obstructed the artery and cut off blood flow to the heart muscle; a “fresh” clot was found in the LAD artery at the autopsy. This precipitated a fatal cardiac arrhythmia, most likely ventricular fibrillation, which was unresponsive to resuscitative efforts. Most heart attacks (myocardial infarctions) are caused by rupture of “vulnerable” plaques that often do not interfere with blood flow or cause symptoms. This may explain why Mr. Russert had no symptoms (such as chest pain) and reportedly had a normal exercise test less than 2 months ago.

Heart Attack Warning Signs. A heart attack is a frightening event, and you probably don’t want to think about it. But, if you learn the signs of a heart attack and what steps to take, you can save a life–maybe your own. What are the signs of a heart attack? Many people think a heart attack is sudden and intense, like a “movie” heart attack, where a person clutches his or her chest and falls over. The truth is that many heart attacks start slowly, as a mild pain or discomfort. If you feel such a symptom, you may not be sure what’s wrong. Your symptoms may even come and go. Even those who have had a heart attack may not recognize their symptoms, because the next attack can have entirely different ones. Women may not think they’re at risk of having a heart attack–but they are. Learn more about women and heart attack. It’s vital that everyone learn the warning signs of a heart attack. These are: Chest discomfort. Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the center of the chest that lasts for more than a few minutes, or goes away and comes back. The discomfort can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness, or pain. Discomfort in other areas of the upper body. Can include pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw, or stomach. Shortness of breath. Often comes along with chest discomfort. But it also can occur before chest discomfort. Other symptoms. May include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea, or light-headedness. Learn the signs–but also remember: Even if you’re not sure it’s a heart attack, you should still have it checked out. Fast action can save lives-maybe your own.

The sooner they are started, the more good they will do–and the greater the chances are for survival and a full recovery. To be most effective, they need to be given ideally within 1 hour of the start of heart attack symptoms. You can reduce your risk of having a heart attack—even if you already have coronary heart disease (CHD) or have had a previous heart attack. The key is to take steps to prevent or control your heart disease risk factors.
