Researchers have issued a warning about the dangers of a harsh winter in a new research

Dr. Arun Kochar, senior consultant at Fortis Hospital, Mohali’s cardiology department, stated in a health advisory that “our heart makes slight adaptations throughout winters so that regular physiological body functions may continue without interference.”

Death rates from cardiovascular illness rise considerably during the winter months, according to a new research.

According to Dr Arun Kochar, a prominent physician at Fortis Hospital, Mohali, “Our heart makes tiny adaptations throughout winters so that regular physiological body functions may continue without impediment. Cold weather may lead to catastrophic health occurrences, such as strokes and heart attacks, at this time of year. There is a 0.49 percent increase in fatalities from circulatory causes for every 1 degree Celsius reduction in temperature. ”

Heart disease with the cold weather

Doctors aren’t sure why heart attacks are on the rise, they say. A decrease in blood flow to the heart muscle might be the result of cold-induced constriction of the heart’s blood arteries. Additionally, research has shown an association between blood pressure and temperature. As the temperature drops, blood pressure rises, taxing the heart’s ability to pump as much blood as it does in the summer. It’s possible to get a heart attack if you engage in an activity that you’re not used to.

Thickening of the clot

As a general rule, people assume that cold and flu cases rise throughout the winter months. Winter mornings, on the other hand, have a reputation for a high number of heart attacks. During the winter months, mortality from cardiac disease, especially sudden deaths, tend to rise sharply. Studies have revealed that the risk of a heart attack doubles during the winter months. As a result, a heart attack in the winter is much more likely to be deadly than a heart attack at any other season. During the winter months, heart attacks and other problems from heart disease are more common in the early morning hours. Having a heart attack may be significantly increased by the early morning spike in blood pressure or’morning surge’ that happens in most individuals, according to new research. Heart attacks are also more likely to occur in the morning because of a hormonal imbalance in the sympathetic system. Often, these occurrences are triggered by excessive intake of high-calorie foods and alcohol. Finally, it is thought that respiratory infections, which are increasingly linked to heart attacks, increase throughout the winter months. A thick clot may develop in the arteries of the heart and brain as a result of these degenerative alterations.

Precautions

Winter mornings are the best time to avoid hard activity. The various dangers of a cold wave need the use of warm gear. During the winter, more clothing traps the air and creates a protective layer of insulation. As majority of the body’s heat exits the head and ears, the body is more susceptible to cold harm. Protective head and ear gear is advantageous. Consult a cardiologist if you have many risk factors for heart disease and want to maximise your therapy.
