Broken heart syndrome doesn't just happen after a loved one or pet dies. Severe pain can trigger the syndrome. So can an asthma attack, a fierce argument, a surprise party, or even public speaking.
When a patient’s heart “breaks,” the main pumping chamber, the left ventricle, weakens, leading to pain and shortness of breath. The condition is reversible and temporary but can lead to complications similar to those. Experts think it’s caused by a flood of hormones produced during a stressful situation that stuns the heart.
Often, a patient has many things happening at once,"and something trips them over," Dhoble says."There is almost always a very distinct stressor. If you ask patients carefully, they will tell you that."about Simpson’s case, which happened in May 2016. Severe pain can trigger the syndrome. So can an asthma attack, a fierce argument, a surprise party, or even public speaking.
About 95% of patients recover within a month or two."Usually the prognosis is quite favorable," Decker says. Patients usually get the same medications used to treat congestive heart failure to support and strengthen the heart. Death is uncommon in people who don't have complications, with less than a 3% fatality rate.The news is not as good for people who get complications, which affect about 1 in 10 cases.
