Susceptibility to exertional heat illness and hospitalisation risk in UK military personnel
BACKGROUND Susceptibility to exertional heat illness (EHI) is considered multifactorial in nature. The aims of this study were to (1) review traditional susceptibility factors identified in cases of EHI and (2) determine how they are related to risk of hospitalisation. METHODS Review of an electronic database of EHI reported in the British Army between 1 September 2007 and 31 December 2014. C...

متن کاملHeat acclimation improves heat exercise tolerance and heat dissipation in individuals with extensive skin grafts.
Burn survivors with extensive skin grafts have impaired heat dissipation and thus heat tolerance. This study tested the hypothesis that heat acclimation (HA) improves these factors in this population. Thirty-four burn survivors were stratified into highly [>40% body surface area (BSA) grafted, n = 15] and moderately (17-40% BSA grafted, n = 19) grafted groups. Nine healthy nonburned subjects se...
