heart attack
A condition that occurs when the heart suddenly stops receiving blood and, with it, oxygen and nutrition from the artery because the artery is blocked by fat buildup. Those experiencing heart attack usually have an intense pain in their left side, chest, or both and can become dizzy or sweaty. If not immediately medically treated, an attack can damage or even destroy the heart.
