There is no effective homemade remedy for a heart attack because it is a life-threatening emergency that requires immediate hospital care. The first thing to do is call emergency medical services without delay. If the person is conscious and not allergic, give a chewable aspirin (150–325 mg) to help reduce clot formation while waiting for medical help. Keep the patient calm and resting until medical professionals arrive. Long-term prevention requires controlling risk factors like diet, physical activity, blood pressure, cholesterol, and diabetes.

Normal Troponin T (Trop T) levels are typically below 15 ng/L in males and below 14 ng/L in females, which indicates no heart attack or heart muscle damage. Values in the range of approximately 14–52 ng/L may suggest a minor heart attack or mild myocardial injury. Values above 52 ng/L are typically associated with a major heart attack and significant heart muscle damage. However, doctors also assess symptoms and repeat Troponin measurements to confirm the diagnosis.
