    Since heart attack means there is a blockage in one or 2 or 3 arteries...
    treatment is to open the artery or unblock the artery to have blood flow thru:

    1. anti-coagulants to thin the blood to have better flow
    2. thrombolysis as clot-busters (we do this if there is a delay to do angioplasty)
    3. angioplasty - this is the aim as early as possible so patients need to be taken to a facility that can do it ie.heart attack centers
    4. bypass -if angioplasty cant be done and the patient is symptomatic

    Access to these things are the emergency measures. In our HAC, once a patient arrives, the HAC nurse can give those tablets (1) while waiting for the team.
    They are the standard meds ie. Aspirin 300mg and Clopidogrel or ticagrelor loading doses then bring the patient to cath lab.
