Effects of Repeated Sauna Bathing on ECG

Background and Purpose: Cardiac disease is considered as one of the contraindication of sauna bath however there is paucity of evidence supporting this statement. The purpose of the study was to investigate the repeated effect of modality on heart during its application. Previous works in our department have examined the effects of single session of sauna bath. The effects of repeated exposure to the sauna remains uninvestigated, keeping this in mind the study aims at examining the effects of 5 session of sauna on ECG.
