The article has the title is “ Cardiologist: Snow work could
contribute to heart attack risk.”
This article is based on the report of Oulu University
Hospital.
According to the research, the heart attack occurs by doing arduous
activities in winter and outside condition. Shoveling snow is a common active
in the winter but this activity can bring some disadvantage affects to the human life. Base on the research that this activity creates dynamic and
isometric, which appears when you do arduous activity as running. It requires
more pressure when people move a huge amount of snow to another place, in this
time, blood pressure happens.
The article also pointed out the reason that un-correct use
shovel for snow. With some men, they’d like to use a huge shovel for saving
time and make their house or road in front of their house are more clear.
To resolve that, Fiskars (a tools company) and some doctors
had some recommends that “has a moulded base and the shape is more important”
and for people don’t waste too much energy on this, they can use spray for the shovels, or use silicon or candle wax for their shovels to not stick to the snow.
These two useful solutions somehow decrease heart attack phenomenon in the
human body.
This article paid attention to me because my father is a
victim of heart attack. Fortunately, my father disease is not too hard but we
do everything to make him happy and help him restrict to do anything, which somehow can
make him easily in the high blood pressure.
When I read this article, it reminded me to my father, but
it also a lesson for me to live in Kokkola.
This is really useful information for any person, who is not
only live in Finland but also in any cold area.
