People with hypertension, heart failure, a history of heart attacks or arrhythmias, the elderly and people with multiple diseases need to be more careful in the heat.
Coolness, avoiding strong exposure to the sun, correct blood pressure measurement and consistency in treatment are basic measures.
Discuss hydration needs and management of any symptoms with the doctor. More fluids is not an appropriate guideline for everyone, especially when there is restriction due to heart or kidney disease.
