Cardiovascular and metabolic manifestations of heat stroke and severe heat exhaustion

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
The patients with heat stroke were somewhat more dehydrated than those with heat exhaustion as measured by differences in serum creatinine, sodium and osmolality, and the former had a significantly lower initial glucose level.

Exertional heat illness during training and competition

TL;DR: Prevention strategies are essential to reducing the incidence of EHS, heat exhaustion, and exercise associated muscle cramping.

Effect of exercise on serum enzyme activities in humans.

TL;DR: The most interesting clinical application for the measurement of serum enzyme activities in the active and apparently healthy population might be the identification of subclinical myopathies, some of which may predispose to the development of acute renal failure or heatstroke during very prolonged exercise.
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.

Acute whole-body cooling for exercise-induced hyperthermia: a systematic review.

TL;DR: Until future investigators identify other acceptable whole-body cooling modalities for exercise-induced hyperthermia, ice-water immersion and cold-water immersed are the methods proven to have the fastest cooling rates.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cooling and hemodynamic management in heatstroke: practical recommendations

TL;DR: The findings of this study could serve as a framework for preliminary recommendations in cooling and hemodynamic management of heatstroke until more evidence-based data are generated.

Catecholamines and cardiomyopathy: The pathogenesis and potential importance of myofibrillar degeneration

TL;DR: Since repcated episodes potentially may produce myocadial fibrosis, this lesion is worthy of more serious consideration in the evaluation of human heart disease manifest by impaired cardiac function and interstitial fibrosis.
