Abstract

Doctors and physiotherapists play a key role in reducing the rate of morbidity and mortality from acute myocardial infarction through well-applied care, as well as through the key point of health education, given that most of the risk factors are modifiable. This article is a literature review, which aims to explore the challenges faced by patients with acute myocardial infarction. This review shows that heart attacks are a serious problem. The study proves that this damage can be reduced or minimized with the training of medical and physiotherapy professionals in recognizing the signs and symptoms in good time, as well as the best treatment.
