Heat-related illness.
Heat-related illness is a set of preventable conditions ranging from mild forms (e.g., heat exhaustion, heat cramps) to potentially fatal heat stroke. Hot and humid conditions challenge cardiovascular compensatory mechanisms. Once core temperature reaches 104°F (40°C), cellular damage occurs, initiating a cascade of events that may lead to organ failure and death. Early recognition of symptoms ...
متن کاملAltitude-related illness.
There are a number of conditions which can be grouped together as ARI. Many represent potentially fatal pathophysiological states that are rapidly reversible if identified and treated properly. Physiological alterations that result from the hypobaric hypoxia of altitude include cerebral vasodilatation, altered ventilatory patterns, pulmonary vasoconstriction, decreased cardiac output, and alter...
متن کاملClinical and angiographic characteristics of exertion-related acute myocardial infarction.
CONTEXT Vigorous physical exertion transiently increases the risk of acute myocardial infarction (MI), but little is known about the clinical characteristics of exertion-related MI. OBJECTIVE To compare the clinical and angiographic characteristics of patients who had an exertion-related acute MI vs those who experienced an MI not related to exertion. DESIGN AND SETTING Prospective observat...
متن کاملSickle cell trait, exertion-related death and confounded estimates
Sickle cell trait (SCT) has historically been thought of as a benign condition. However, there has been increasing recognition that, in athletes, SCT is associated with an elevated risk for exertion-related death (ERD). With the hope to minimise future tragedies, Harmon et al sought to quantify the association of SCT and ERD. They looked at data compiled on nearly two million collegiate ‘athlet...
متن کاملHeat-related illness in athletes.
Heat stroke in athletes is entirely preventable. Exertional heat illness is generally the result of increased heat production and impaired dissipation of heat. It should be treated aggressively to avoid life-threatening complications. The continuum of heat illness includes mild disease (heat edema, heat rash, heat cramps, heat syncope), heat exhaustion, and the most severe form, potentially lif...
