Upon admission on the 02 July 2019. Mr Hendrick presented symptoms such as constant chest pain and heaviness in both arms. He has been diagnosed with myocardial infarction for which he was treated with emergency angioplasty. Following treatment, no further chest pain and the heart status is stable. In addition, physiotherapist reviewed him and commenced Heart exercise programme. Dietician also adviced on diet for weight loss cholestrol level reduction.
