The Prince Sultan Cardiac Center’s Department of Change Management Communication and Awareness recently released a brief awareness video by Dr. Abdulaziz Al-Mokhlif. This is in relation to the ongoing awareness campaigns facilitated by the center with the hope of tell and awakening the people with medical information. 

The said video with Dr. Abdulaziz Al-Mokhlif as the speaker/lecturer has tackled on severe colds that may incur or increase the patient's heart rate especially those with narrowed coronary arteries. This case may oftentimes lead to heart attack. More so, for patients with heart failure, severe colds may develop weakness and a decline in the function of the heart's muscle, thus causing the fluid to accumulate in the body and lungs. 

The said video was also substantiated with several messages and advises that urge the people not to take the cold weather for granted. Dr. Mokhlif advised the people to wear proper and sufficient clothes during cold weather to keep the body warm and to avoid body fatigue. For the elderly especially those who are paralyzed or unable to move, they are advised to take their medicines as prescribed by their respective doctors.
