Emergency Medical Service Directors' Protocols for Exertional Heat Stroke.

Conclusions: These findings demonstrate a lack of implementation of best-practice standards for EHS by EMS. Working with an athletic trainer appears to increase the likelihood of following best practices. Efforts should be made to improve EMS providers' implementation of best-practice standards for the diagnosis and management of EHS to optimize patient outcomes. PMID: 32987646 [PubMed - in process]
