Study Discovers Sex Not So Bad For Heart Patients Afterall

Pharmaceutical companies weren’t always as glamourous as they are now. Before erectile dysfunction pills were invented they only focused on boring projects like irradiating life threatening diseases. However, since the monetizing of old men having sex without the need for college students wearing school girl outfits, things have been quite different.

Erectile dysfunction pills are a multi-billion dollar cash cow. With these medications making big pharma money hand over fist it’s no wonder we are constantly bombarded with commercials for them. Even early afternoon episodes of SpongeBob SquarePants will run a Cialis commercial just in case there are grandparents within earshot. All these boner pill commercials run with the same lawsuit-eliminating warning that people with heart problems avoid having sex.

However a recent study stands to challenge this caveat.

According to a report by doctors from the Cedars-Sinai Heart Institution, the long standing assumption that sex could trigger cardiac arrest in patients with heart conditions could be false. Their research suggests that this happened to less than 1 percent of patients during or just after intercourse. Hmm!

Researchers behind the study examined medical records and other reports from heart patients spanning more than 13 years. Crunching data about old people’s sexual habits and cross referencing it with their medical history allowed them to reach this discovery that contradicts long standing medical advice for heart patients.

Currently the British Heart Foundation advises patients who have recently had heart surgery or suffered cardiac arrest, which is different from a heart attack, to avoid having sex for 4 to 6 weeks. This warning is based on medical reasoning so old it’s almost common knowledge, which is why it’s interesting for a study to come right out and challenge it.

The purpose of the study is to generate discourse and educate people on not only the importance of heart health but being properly trained in life saving techniques. The very same research also indicated that only a third of people in cardiac arrest received CPR even when another person was nearby.

If a genuine medical professional is going to create a whole academic article around sex just to promote the importance of people who know heart patients getting CPR certified then, god damn it, I’m more than happy to oblige.
