As far as I know, the term "Massive Heart Attack" is not a medical recognized term, it's folk invention and the doctors even use it sometimes to underline the damaging effects of the myocardial infarction. And the main risk factors, as I read here :) * smoking * coronary heart disease * obesity * hypertension Hope I answered ok for you!
