[Circadian rhythm of cardiovascular emergencies].
Many cardiovascular emergencies occur predominantly in the morning hours. This diurnal distribution is due to synchronized exogenous and endogenous rhythms, the latter being controlled by a biological clock. In the morning, these rhythms raise blood pressure, heart rate, platelet aggregability, coronary vascular tone and thus, increase the risk of cardiovascular events.
