What is the thermal stress
Particularly high temperatures endanger thermal stress of citizens and they need great attention from everyone and especially with vulnerable groups.
The country will be in red according to the Heat Alarm Alarm Warning System of the Athens Observatory.
Christos Giannaros, a biomedicalist of the National Observatory of Athens, told ERTNEWS: “This contributes to the thermal burden of the human body, that is, the human body has difficulty eliminating heat and this leads to strain to basic functions from mild symptoms.”
Thermal stress or otherwise thermal stress is the reaction of the human body to the outside temperature.
The most important symptoms are a headache, a tendency to faint, intense sweating, nausea, vomiting, fast and weak pulse.
Particularly careful should be elderly, babies and young children, pregnant and lactating women working in a warm environment, as well as people with chronic diseases.
Panagiotis Halvatsiotis, an Associate Professor of Pathology at the NCSR spoke to ERTNEWS, noting that “hydration is a very important element to deal with the problem, our food will be rich in vegetables and fruits because they have a lot of water in, not fatty foods, to avoid coffee. We wear hats, sunscreen, not to be exposed to the sun. “
At the same time, it should be noted that cardiovascular episodes and respiratory crises are significantly exacerbated by dehydration conditions.
“Beware of the symptoms of mild dehydration, for a headache we are talking about a payment of forces and a discomfort that can be followed by symptoms of a more severe image of the heat that is accompanied by shock, rough or even a heart attack. So it takes gradual hydration and not abruptly with drinks, “said Specialist Sotiris Adamidis.
Beware of the symptoms of mild dehydration, we are talking about a headache for a payment of forces and a discomfort that can be followed by symptoms of a more severe image of the heat heat stroke accompanied by shock, roughness or even a heart attack. So it takes gradual hydration and not abruptly with drinks.
