The little girl had blood clots, during the operation one broke free and caused a heart attack. She DIED on the table, was revived and was then hit with another break away blood clot which killed her.

So do you mean pulmonary embolism, rather than myocardial infarction? That's what large, mobilized blood clots can do.

If so, she was at risk for PE: obese, operation underway, and possibly on birth control pills (13 yo, black).
