What is the difference between a heart attack and heart failure?
1. A heart attack is a chronic condition where the heart is unable to pump sufficiently; heart failure is an acute event caused by blockage.
2. A heart attack results from the blockage of coronary arteries; heart failure is a condition where the heart can't pump blood effectively.
3. Heart failure is always caused by a heart attack.
4. Heart attacks and heart failures are different terms for the same condition.
