The Human Nervous System:

The nervous system is a complex network of nerves and cells that carry messages to and from the brain and spinal cord to various parts of the body. It's divided into the central nervous system (CNS), consisting of the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system (PNS), which includes all other neural elements.

Together, they control everything from your heartbeat to your thoughts. Learn more about how this amazing system works

Watch as a Heart Attack unfolds..

The process starts with plaque rupturing, and a clot begins to form. The clot reduces the blood flow to the heart, which starves the heart of oxygen.

Heart cells begin to die, resulting in various symptoms, such as intense chest pain.

Next, the heart beats uncontrollably fast, also known as Ventricular Tachycardia. This can spiral into Cardiac Arrest, where the heart seizes to beat.
Remember: this is a medical emergency and can require immediate intervention to save someone's life
Time = heart muscle saved

The Heart's Conduction System: Powering Every Beat

The heart's conduction system controls the electrical impulses that keep your heart beating in rhythm. This system includes the SA node (the heart's natural pacemaker), AV node, Bundle of His, and Purkinje fibers. Each part works together to ensure the heart pumps blood efficiently.
A malfunction in this system can lead to arrhythmias or irregular heartbeats
