🫀 Heart Attack Deaths Are Down — But Heart Disease Is Still on the Rise
Medical advancements have dramatically improved survival after heart attacks—nearly 90% of people now survive, compared to just 40% in 1970. That’s something to celebrate.

But here’s the catch: more people are now living with chronic heart conditions like heart failure, arrhythmias, and complications from high blood pressure. These conditions now account for nearly half of all heart-related deaths.

What this means for you:
✅ Surviving a heart attack is no longer the end of the story—ongoing care matters
✅ Managing high blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes is more important than ever
✅ Healthy habits and regular checkups are key to protecting your long-term heart health

Let’s keep your heart strong for the years ahead.

💓 Feeling a Flutter? It Might Be Heart Palpitations 💓

Ever felt your heart skip a beat or race unexpectedly? You're not alone. Heart palpitations are common and often harmless, but they can sometimes signal underlying health issues. Dr. Leonard Pianko, a cardiologist at Aventura Cardiovascular Center, explains that while most palpitations are benign, they can be triggered by factors like stress, caffeine, hormonal changes, or certain medical conditions.

When to Seek Medical Attention:

Palpitations accompanied by chest pain or shortness of breath

Dizziness or fainting

Frequent or persistent episodes

If you're experiencing any of these symptoms or have concerns about your heart health, it's essential to consult a healthcare professional.

📞 Call us today at (305) 384-4720 or visit our website to schedule an appointment and take control of your heart health.
