A new study found that people who took enhanced medicine and health care treatment have survived from heart attacks. This study was published in the American Medical Association, and noted that the hospitals and clinics follow confirmed guidelines for treating heart attacks chest pains, results will end with more patients surviving from heart attacks. There were 44,372 participants who have been tested between July 1999 and December 2006 at 113 hospitals in 14 countries.

The study which done by Dr. Keith Fox, a professor of cardiology at the University of Edinburgh in Britain, tested the reflection of patients when they are treated with the latest guideline for heart attacks treatment.

The results showed that heart attack could be avoided dramatically. Also the trials founded that the faster the condition treated the better the results. For example, treating a blocked artery quickly with angioplasty, will lead to better results. Angioplasty is recommended by many heart health organizations to be taken within 90 minutes of entering the hospital.

The results data showed that there is a major decrease in the number of deaths due to heart attacks and other heart diseases in the hospitals and also there is a decrease in heart stroke and heart failure conditions. The results varied from condition to other, but the most decrease appeared in Deaths from ST-elevation heart attack which dropped to around 4.6 in the year 2006.

Researches credited the developments in treatment results to better use of drugs such as beta-blockers, cholesterol-lowering statins, ACE inhibitors, anti-clotting drugs, blood thinners and glycoprotein IIb/IIIa inhibitors, that are used to treat chest pains. Also Angioplasty was used in 2006 by two thirds of the patients which reduced the figures of deaths by 18 percent.
