A 45-year-old technician in Taichung, Mr. Hong, suffered an acute myocardial infarction while playing baseball due to his high levels of blood lipids and glucose from enjoying BBQ and desserts. He collapsed unconscious, showing symptoms of heart attack, but was saved by CPR from friends at the nearby hospital. The hospital's heart team successfully performed emergency heart catheterization and stent placement surgery within 72 minutes, ultimately saving him from a near-death experience caused by the myocardial infarction.
