A study presented at the American Heart Association’s Scientific Sessions meeting in 2018 and published in the AHA journal ‘Circulation’ included over 28,000 people hospitalized for heart attacks from 1995 to 2014. This research showed that 30% of these patients were between the ages of 35 to 54 and the proportion of women in this group was significantly higher.
The reasons behind this drastic change in age specification can be generally attributed to the drastic change in lifestyles of the middle-aged population. Nowadays, the average 30-50 years old is stuck at home or at the office, worrying about something or other and then succumbing to unhealthy eating habits or smoking to reduce the stress in their lives. If they ever do feel chest pain or other heart disease symptoms, they brush it off as a muscle spasm and do not seek medical attention promptly.
