The body ultimately has three things that can go wrong with it. The pump (heart), the tubes (veins/arteries/etc), and the fluid (blood). In a MI (myocardial infarction/ heart attack) the pump is not getting any or enough fluid due to a block in the pumps own pipes. Thus, the rest of the body gets no freshly oxygenated fluid through the rest of the pipes.
