Hot flushes may do more than make you sweat – new study looks at heart impact

NCT ID NCT05251324

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at what happens to the heart and breathing during a hot flush in postmenopausal women. Researchers will use heating pads and warm items to trigger hot flushes in a controlled setting. They want to see if these induced flushes cause similar changes in blood pressure, heart rate, and breathing as natural ones. The goal is to better understand the body's response, not to test a treatment.
