Heart is the most important organ of a human body. It circulates oxygen and other vital nutrients through blood to different parts of the body and helps in the metabolic activities. Apart from this it also helps in removal of the metabolic wastes. Thus, even minor problems in heart can affect the whole organism. Researchers are diverting a lot of data analysis work for assisting the doctors to predict the heart problem. So, an analysis of the data related to different health problems and its functioning can help in predicting with a certain probability for the wellness of this organ. In this paper we have analysed the different prescribed data of 1094 patients from different parts of India. Using this data, we have built a model which gets trained using this data and tries to predict whether a new out-of-sample data has a probability of having any heart attack or not. This model can help in decision making along with the doctor to treat the patient well and creating a transparency between the doctor and the patient. In the validation set of the data, it’s not only the accuracy that the model has to take care, rather the True Positive Rate and False-Negative Rate along with the AUC-ROC helps in building/fixing the algorithm inside the model.
