Recognise a Heart Emergency

Do not wait, do not ignore. These symptoms demand immediate action. Every minute of delay causes permanent heart muscle damage.

💢

Chest Pain or Pressure

Sudden tightness, squeezing, or crushing pain in the chest — may spread to the jaw, shoulder, or arm.

😮

Shortness of Breath

Sudden difficulty breathing, even at rest or with mild activity — often with or without chest pain.

💧

Cold Sweating

Sudden profuse cold sweat, pallor, or clammy skin — a classic warning sign of a heart attack.

🤢

Nausea & Dizziness

Unexplained nausea, vomiting, lightheadedness, or sudden fainting — especially in women and elderly.

💪

Radiating Pain

Pain radiating to the left arm, neck, jaw, back, or upper abdomen — does not have to start in the chest.

❤️

Palpitations

Irregular, racing, or pounding heartbeat — especially if accompanied by dizziness or chest discomfort.

If you or someone near you has these symptoms — Act Immediately.

Do not drive yourself. Call our emergency line. Our Cath Lab team can be ready in minutes.
