TL;DR: Compared with rectal temperature, gastrointestinal temperature was the only measurement that accurately assessed core body temperature and, therefore, Oral, axillary, aural, temporal, and field forehead temperatures were significantly different from rectal temperatures and are considered invalid for assessing hyperthermia in individuals exercising outdoors in the heat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exertional heat stroke: new concepts regarding cause and care.
TL;DR: Important issues related to EHS cause and care are addressed, including predisposing factors, errors in care, physiology of cold water immersion, and return-to-play or duty considerations.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The aim of this work is to provide a platform for future generations of scientists to discuss and discuss the science of anesthesia and its applications in the context of clinical practice.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of Rectal and Aural Core Body Temperature Thermometry in Hyperthermic, Exercising Individuals: A Meta-Analysis
TL;DR: The T(re) was consistently greater than T(au) when T(core) was measured in hyperthermic individuals before, during, and postexercise, and Clinicians should be aware of this critical difference in temperature magnitude between these measurement techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of hydration biomarkers including salivary osmolality during passive and active dehydration.
Colleen X. Muñoz,Evan C. Johnson,Julie K. DeMartini,Robert A. Huggins,Amy L. McKenzie,Douglas J. Casa,Carl M. Maresh,Lawrence E. Armstrong +7 more
TL;DR: The efficacy of indices to detect dehydration ⩾2% differed across treatments, and findings indicate hydration biomarkers should be selected by considering daily activities.
