In fact, the hot environment also is easy to induce the angina pectoris, especially in the situation of high temperature and moist heat. The frequency to occur angina pectoris is just like in the peak state of the winter. This is because hot and moisty cause the heart rate to increase quickly, stroke output reduces, in addition the hot and damp environment may make the ventricle capacity increase. It leads to the increase of oxygen consumption volume in the cardiac muscle, which induce the cardiac muscle ischemia as well as oxygen deficit, thus form the angina pectoris inducement.

Therefore, coronary disease patients should pay attention to the following several points in the burning hot summer.

First, performing exercises should be done in the early cool morning. Do not practise in the hot sunshine. Before the thunderstorm arrival in the hot and moisty situation, should pay attention to properly rest or maintain in calm condition.

Second, the attention shoud be paid to prevent heatstroke. When carry on the activity or work outdoor, should wear topi and prepare enough water, in case the periphery vasodilatation occurrence, the blood capacity insufficience to induce arteries blood supply reduction, as well as the cardiac muscle ischemia,which will induce the angina pectoris.

Third, the patients with the history of angina pectoris attack can take medication for preventability, for instance, propranolol, isosorbide dinitrate miltiorrhiza piece and so on. If go to travel outdoors,  patients must take with nitroglycerin or the nitrite isoamyl, etc anti-angina pectoris medicine.
