How A Man Survived 40 Hours Without Heartbeat: Imagine, your heart stops beating. Not for a few seconds or minutes, but for more than 40 hours. There is no heartbeat of your own, no normal body movements, life is dependent only on machines and doctors are trying every moment to somehow bring you back. Something similar happened with a person in Eastern China, who, against all expectations, regained his way to life.
What is the matter?
The incident came to light when a man aged around forty reached the Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine complaining of chest tightness and difficulty in breathing. Initially this seemed to be a normal problem, but suddenly his condition worsened. Both heart and breath stopped working together. The rhythm of the body, which keeps a person alive, came to a complete halt.
Even the shocks had no effect
Doctors immediately started trying to save him. Several shocks were given to restart the heart, but there was no effect. Usually, the methods by which the heart starts beating again failed completely this time. It seemed as if the body had responded.
But the doctors did not give up. They connected him to a machine that could handle the work of the heart and lungs. Through this system, dirty air is removed from the blood, oxygen is added to it and then it is sent back to the body. Along with this, another device was installed, which helps in reducing pressure on the heart and maintaining blood flow.

Relying on the machine for two days
That person remained completely dependent on these machines for about two days. There was no heartbeat of its own in his body, signs of life remained only with the help of machines. Every moment was a challenge for the doctors, because having the heart stopped for such a long period of time usually almost eliminates any hope of recovery. Then a moment came which surprised everyone. After more than 40 hours, his heart started working again. Gradually the heartbeat started becoming normal and the body started responding. This was no less than a miracle.
out of hospital after three weeks
After about three weeks of treatment, the man walked out of the hospital on his feet. The investigation revealed that he was suffering from severe inflammation in the heart muscle, which can affect the heart very rapidly. Timely treatment, modern technology and continuous efforts of doctors gave him a new life. This incident reminds us that medical science and human determination can together make the impossible possible. Sometimes hope returns from where everything seems to be lost.
