What are the normal and high values for various heart-related metrics? What are the thresholds for no heart attack, minor attacks, and full heart attacks?
Asked by Female, 58 · 3 months ago
Normal heart health readings include a blood pressure of around 120/80 mmHg, a resting heart rate between 60 to 100 beats per minute, total cholesterol below 200 mg/dL, and fasting blood sugar between 70 to 99 mg/dL. High blood pressure (above 140/90), high cholesterol, and high sugar levels can increase your risk of heart disease and heart attacks. A minor heart attack usually means a partial blockage in the heart's blood supply, while a major heart attack happens when a main artery is completely blocked. Both are serious and need medical care. If you ever feel chest pain, heaviness, shortness of breath, or pain spreading to your arm or jaw, get emergency help immediately. Regular check-ups, a healthy diet, exercise, and managing blood pressure, cholesterol, and sugar levels can help prevent heart problems.

Heart-Related Metrics and Their Normal Ranges
- Blood Pressure: Normal is around 120/80 mmHg; elevated is 120-129/<80 mmHg; high is 130/80 mmHg or higher.
- Heart Rate (Pulse): Normal resting rate is 60-100 bpm; tachycardia is >100 bpm; bradycardia is <60 bpm.
- Cholesterol Levels: LDL <100 mg/dL, HDL >60 mg/dL, Total <200 mg/dL.
- Blood Sugar Levels: Fasting <100 mg/dL, postprandial <140 mg/dL.
Cardiac Biomarkers Used to Assess Heart Attacks
- Troponin: Elevated levels indicate heart muscle injury.
- CK-MB: Elevated levels suggest myocardial damage.
Thresholds for Heart Attack Severity
- No Heart Attack: Normal biomarkers, no symptoms.
- Minor (Non-ST Elevation) Heart Attack: Slightly elevated biomarkers, symptoms, ECG changes.
- Full (ST Elevation) Heart Attack: Significantly elevated biomarkers, characteristic ECG changes.
Importance of Medical Evaluation
- Diagnosis requires professional assessment.
- Seek immediate medical attention if heart attack symptoms are suspected.
Relevant Medical Specialties and Tests
- Cardiology consultation.
- Diagnostic tests: ECG, echocardiogram, blood tests.
