Cause of Death:
WWE star Scott Hall, also popularly known as Razor Ramon, died on Tuesday at the age of 63. He had been put on life support after suffering from multiple heart attacks. Hall had developed a blood clot as a result of complications from hip replacement surgery earlier this month, according to reports.
Experts say the risk of heart attack may increase in people undergoing any major surgical procedure, especially those who have pre-existing heart disease.
There are several studies that say hip replacement surgeries have led to heart attacks in patients.
How did die:
“Any major surgical procedure performed under general anesthesia triggers the adrenergic system of the body which puts stress on the cardiovascular system. This is by increasing heart rate blood pressure and clotting tendency in the body.
Persons with pre-existing heart disease may at times not be able to withstand this insult and develop a heart attack during or soon after the surgery.
This risk is further enhanced by stoppage of blood thinning medication to reduce the bleeding from the wound,” Dr Atul Mathur, Executive Director – Interventional Cardiology and Chief of Cath Lab, Fortis Escorts Heart Institute, Okhla, New Delhi says in an interview with HT Digital.
