Prediction of Heart Attack Using Machine Learning

Main Article Content

Abstract

Cardiovascular diseases are one of the  biggest reasons for death of millions of people  around the world only second to cancer. A heart  attack occurs when a blood clot blocks the blood flow  to a part of the heart. In case this blood clot cuts off  the blood flow entirely, the part of the heart muscle  begins to die as a result. Going by the statistics, a  heart problem can gradually start between the age of  40-50 for people with unhealthy diet and bad lifestyle  choices. So, an early prognosis can really make a  huge difference in their lives by motivating them  towards a healthy and active life. By changing their  lifestyle and diet this risk can be controlled. This  Project intends to pinpoint the most relevant/risk  factors of heart disease as well as predict the overall  risk using machine learning. The machine learning  model predicts the likelihood of patients getting a  heart disease trained on dataset of other individuals.  As the result, the probability of getting a heart  disease based on current lifestyle and diet is  calculated. The model was trained with Framingham  heart study dataset.
