Cardiologist Altin Veshti was invited to the Opinion show.

He said that diagnoses of heart diseases at a young age have increased and advised physical activity to maintain a healthy heart.  

In the case of former deputy Gerti Bogdani, who died yesterday from a cardiac arrest, he said that he did not see the card specifically, but there are 4 hypotheses as to what might have happened.

" There are 4 hypotheses that a person can suffer cardiac death. The first thing I have to say is the myocardial infarction, that is, the infarction is the closing of one of the arteries of the heart, and the heart has 2 arteries, and that area that does not receive blood practically begins to decrease its function. The fact that he has begun to breathe means that the left side of the heart, i.e. the left ventricle, has begun to not be well supplied with blood and meanwhile has been closing completely. When the artery is completely closed, the heart does not stop, as people think, but a malignant arrhythmia intervenes. which makes the heart no longer contract, but only makes a movement that fails to pump. This happens very quickly and is difficult to intervene. It has often happened to us that even in the ward, we cannot take them to the hall and save them. The second is what we call aortic dissection or aortic dissection. But it gives an immediate pain like a knife being stuck in the chest. The third is pulmonary thromboembolism, so that the lungs are filled with thrombus, the 2 large arteries and the massive filling makes the patient's life impossible. The fourth is an arrhythmia that occurs in footballers which I don't think is his case. It is these football players who collapse while playing in what is called right ventricular arrhythmia ," said the doctor
