Association of Snowfall and Myocardial Infarction
In Brief
An observational study evaluating snowfall > 5cm/day for Acute Myocardial Infarction. Completed, enrolled 18,075 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Changes in the ambient temperature (esp. warm to cold) as well as exercise are triggers for vasospasms and plaque rupture. Weather data (temperature, precipitation in general as well as snowfall and changes in atmospheric pressure) will be correlated with the incidence of myocardial infarctions.
