The known cause of Elvis Presley's death was due to cardiac arrhythmia which in turn was a result of his consistent misuse of the drugs prescribed to him.
the scar is the result of surgery he had in his childhood to correct a condition known as pyloric stenosis . This condition can cause projectile vomiting in young infants and thickening of a muscle outside the opening to the small intestine. This in turn may cause weight loss due to foods not being able to proceed through the intestinal tract.
what is result of roll no.8796712
No. Not simple enough. Profound thoughts are simply the natural result of character.
complete shut down of the respiratory system. respiratory arrest is the ultimate result of prolonged respiratory failure. respiratory arrest usually results in cardiac arrest. (in children)

Cardiac arrest occurs when the heart stops beating (or arrests). When a myocardial infarction (MI) occurs a portion of the heart either dies or becomes ischemic. Usually arrest wouldn't be due to an MI but if an MI was big enough it would initiate an arrhythmia called fibrillation and the heart would stop pumping blood. This is also called sudden cardiac death. SCD can occur without an MI as well.
Defibrillation is performed to correct life-threatening fibrillations of the heart, which could result in cardiac arrest.
A blockage in one or more of the arteries supplying blood to the heart muscles.
drop in blood pressure and pulselessness w/subsequent cardiac arrest and respiratory failure and multisystem organ failure if resuscitation is not instituted drop in blood pressure and pulselessness w/subsequent cardiac arrest and respiratory failure and multisystem organ failure if resuscitation is not instituted drop in blood pressure and pulselessness w/subsequent cardiac arrest and respiratory failure and multisystem organ failure if resuscitation is not instituted drop in blood pressure and pulselessness w/subsequent cardiac arrest and respiratory failure and multisystem organ failure if resuscitation is not instituted drop in blood pressure and pulselessness w/subsequent cardiac arrest and respiratory failure and multisystem organ failure if resuscitation is not instituted
Taking anywhere above 13 would be considered an overdose, anywhere above 19 and you will most likely be hospitalized, and taking 24 or more pills will result in cardiac arrhythmia or cardiac arrest.
Your heart stops and all the body systems shut down, and as a result, you literally die (unless revived/saved by paramedics or first aiders).
Rico Yan's death was the result of cardiac arrest, brought on by acute hemorrhagic pancreatitis. He was only 27 years old.
The cardic CT angio result samples refer to the samples that are usually taken to diagnose the heart problems.
a stab wound to the heart can result in cardiac tamponade
Is There a Difference Between a Sudden Cardiac Arrest and a Heart Attack? * A heart attack and sudden cardiac arrest are not the same thing. * A heart attack is technically known as myocardial infarction, although a person suffering a heart attack certainly has an increased risk of a sudden cardiac arrest. * The term cardiac arrest is also used to describe the sudden loss of function of the heart, as result of an abrupt disturbance in the heart's rhythm. It can occur in a person with or without heart disease. The basic difference is summarized below: Who can be affected by Sudden Cardiac Arrest? * People often ask who can be affected by sudden cardiac arrest, anticipating it is the fate of the elderly. Although the frequency and risk of SCA certainly increases with age it can occur without warning or symptoms to anyone, even teenagers. * According to the Australian Resuscitation Council an estimated 30,000 people a year suffer sudden cardiac arrest. Although pre-existing heart disease is a common cause for cardiac arrest, many victims never previously exhibit heart problems. * The survival rate for SCA without immediate treatment is low in the vicinity of 5 to 10 %, whereas survival rates well above 50% have been achieved following successful implementation of CPR and defibrillation, the shorter the time span of treatment the higher the survival rate. Is it possible to reverse the effect of sudden cardiac arrest? Yes, it is entirely possible to reverse the effect of a sudden cardiac arrest, particularly if the unconscious victim receives immediate aid by restoring the circulation with cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and delivery of defibrillation to restore the normal heart rhythm. If these life saving measures are delayed the prospect of a complete recovery diminishes. HEART ATTACK Cause: An occlusion or blockage in an artery that supplies blood to the heart - typically the coronary artery. Once the artery is blocked the heart muscle dies as a result of oxygen deprivation, resulting in a heart attack Warning Signs: Chest and arm pain, upper abdomen and jaw pain also common, sweating, weakness, dizziness, nausea, vomiting are all common symptoms Patient Response: Usually remains conscious and alert, usually distressed and anxious. Survival Prospects: Generally good, with appropriate treatment SUDDEN CARDIAC ARREST Cause: An abnormal or irregular heart rhythm (cardiac arrhythmias) occurs. Instead of the heart beating in a coordinated fashion, the ventricles (lower chambers) quiver or wobble - a process known as ventricular fibrillation, resulting in a cardiac arrest Warning Signs: Sudden collapse, usually no detectable pulse Patient Response: Unconscious and totally unresponsive, usually no pulse, and not breathing Survival Prospects:Generally poor 90+% will die unless CPR and defibrillation is administered within 10 minutes of collapse. Some people simply don't respond to treatment because of underlying medical conditions Page 12, Sensitive Hearts Newsletter Newsletter, Summer 2005-06 Sensitive Hearts is a publication of the Australian Sudden Arrhythmia Death Syndromes (SADS) Foundation.
