Heart diseases or cardiac diseases are becoming more common by the day, and certainly many factors contribute to it, such as increasing weight, high cholesterol, hypertension, smoking, environmental fluctuations like heat stroke, etc. Dr.Ravinder Singh Rao is a Chief Interventional Cardiologist heart disease expert in India. ▼ 2022 (1) ▼ April (1) Heart Disease and Summer | Healthy Heart Tips for ... ► 2021 (1) ► 2020 (1) ► 2019 (4) Heart Disease and summer | Healthy Heart Tips for summer | Dr. Ravinder Singh Rao Increasing temperature has potentially threatened life in every way possible. It has many ill effects on nature but has affected humans too. The heat wave is a typically abnormal and uncomfortable weather condition associated with life threats and injury, especially for people with heart conditions/heart diseases. People taking medications for heart diseases are more prone to heart damage and at more risk of failure conditions as the body is unable to bring back normal body functions without getting proper help from the pumping organ. Although, it is subjectively controversial as seasonal changes in body functions. How does heat affect functioning of heart? A healthy person modifies and acclimatizes mostly to temperature changes. In extreme summers, the human body starts producing sweat which is a mechanism to cool down the body’s temperature. Usually, the body’s core is not affected by these fluctuations; only the skin faces such fluctuations in response to the environment. Extreme warmth triggers a set of autonomic responses, which includes the production of sweat and vasodilation. For producing sweat, the heart has to pump more blood for thermoregulation. If a person is suffering from heart conditions already, this extra pumping can produce stress on the heart. Although it is not likely that only a person with heart conditions will suffer from stress, a healthy person also might suffer such stressful conditions which they might not even notice any other day. According to Heart Expert, sweating upsets the fluid balance of the body which if not retained can lead to heatstroke, which can adversely affect heart patients. Healthy Heart Tips for summer | Precautions for heart patients in Summers: According to best Cardiologist, there are certain steps that people with cardiac diseases must follow during periods of extreme heat. Prevent yourself from dehydration: Keep your body hydrated at all times. Dehydration causes loss of electrolytes along with water loss. When the body does not have enough fluids, it causes more stress on the heart. Avoid alcohol: Alcohol is a diuretic. It can cause the removal of body fluids from the body leading to water loss, hence dehydration. Medications: Don’t stop taking your routine medicines during hot weather. Heat tolerance: Acclimatize yourself to heat and make your body adjust to high heat by constantly revealing yourself to heat for some time day by day.
