Most heart attacks occur on a Monday.
British researchers have given new meaning to the phrase, “Sunday scaries.” According to research presented at the British Cardiovascular Society Conference, the most serious types of heart attacks are more likely to happen on Monday than any other day of the week.
Doctors at the Belfast Health and Social Care Trust and the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland analyzed data from more than 10,000 patients across Ireland who had been admitted to the hospital between 2013 and 2018 with the most serious type of heart attack, also known as a ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This type of heart attack occurs when a major coronary artery is completely blocked.
Researchers found that a surge in rates of STEMI heart attacks occurred at the start of the working week, with the highest rates found on Mondays. The rates of STEMI heart attacks were also higher than expected on Sundays.
