Many migrants wait hours after a heart attack to seek help, Here's why
By Hannah Wechkunanukul and Philip Dalinjong Your chest tightens, like an elephant is sitting on it. Pain streaks down your arm and you break out in a cold sweat. You feel light-headed and you’re pretty sure you’re having a heart attack. So when do you call an ambulance? You might think the answer is easy: straight away, right? It’s well known getting the right medical help early when you’re having a heart attack can be a life or death decision.

為何澳洲許多移民心臟病發數小時才求助？怎樣改善？
你的胸口發悶，就像有一頭大象坐在上面，疼痛沿著手臂傳來，你開始冒冷汗。你感到頭暈目眩，非常肯定自己心臟病發作了。那麼甚麼時候叫救護車呢？ 你可能認為答案很簡單：馬上，對嗎？眾所周知，心臟病發作時及早獲得正確的醫療救助是生死攸關的決定。 然而，對於許多來自多元文化和語言背景（culturally and linguistically diverse；CALD）社區的人來說，他們可能會在出現最初症狀的數小時，甚至更長時間之後，才採取行動。 我們的研究表明，許多移民沒有立即尋求幫助。為甚麼這麼多移民在胸口痛後等待很長時間，才尋求幫助或去醫院？我們又能做些甚麼來改變這種狀況呢？ 我們之前的研究，基於一項涉及 600 多名因胸口痛到醫院的求診者的研究，該研究探討他們延遲尋求醫療幫助的時間和延遲去醫院的時間。 我們發現，撒哈拉以南非洲移民，到醫院前延遲時間的中位數為6小時。相比之下，整個受調查群體的院前延遲時間中位數為3.7小時。 值得注意的是，尋求幫助的決定時間佔移民患者院前延遲時間的83%，而對於在澳洲出生的患者，這一比例僅為48%。...
