Can heat cause a high heart rate?
Heat related to the human body causes vein and artery dilation (expansion) and decreases pressure or blood flow (blood pressure). If a person has plaque severe enough that the body requires a certain pressure to push blood through it and you take that pressure away, the artery can spasm and close or be deprived of needed blood flow causing ischemia (lack of oxygen) or infarct (myocardial infarct or heart attack).

A possible anterior infarct can be caused by a blockage in one of the coronary arteries supplying blood to the front of the heart. This blockage can lead to decreased blood flow to the heart muscle, resulting in damage or death of the tissue in that area. Risk factors for anterior infarcts include atherosclerosis, high blood pressure, smoking, and diabetes.
