Exertional Heat Stroke Survival at the Falmouth Road Race: 180 New Cases With Expanded Analysis
CONCLUSIONS: This is the second-largest civilian database of EHS cases ever reported; however, when combined with the previous dataset of EHS survivors from this race, it amounts to 454 EHS cases resulting in 100% survival. WBGT remains a strong predictor of EHS and EHI cases. These findings support that a wide range of ages and sexes can be treated with CWI with 100% survival from EHS.PMID:37655801 | DOI:10.4085/1062-6050-0065.23

Knowledge gaps persist regarding exertional heat stroke treatment
J Athl Train. 2022 Sep 1. doi: 10.4085/1062-6050-366-19. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIndividualized patient care is ideal to treat and rehabilitate athletic illnesses and injuries. Exertional heat stroke (EHS) treatment best practice recommendations state all patients should undergo identical cold water immersion (CWI) treatment for ideal outcomes. It is unknown, however, if CWI can be optimized with individualized treatment plans, encouraging personalized medicine. To accomplish this task, clinicians and researchers need to better understand factors impacting CWI effectiveness. This short report will provide an update t...

Proper Recognition and Management of Exertional Heat Stroke in a High School Cross-Country Runner: A Validation Clinical Case Report
J Athl Train. 2022 Jun 1;57(6):586-591. doi: 10.4085/1062-6050-0462.21.ABSTRACTA 14-year-old female high school cross- country runner (height = 154 cm, mass = 48.1 kg) with no history of exertional heat stroke (EHS) collapsed at the end of a race. An athletic trainer assessed the patient, who presented with difficulty breathing and then other signs of EHS (eg, confusion and agitation). The patient was taken to the medical area and draped with a towel, and a rectal temperature (Tre) of 106.9°F (41.6°C) was obtained. The emergency action plan was activated, and emergency medical services was called. The patient was submerg...

Return to Competition Progression after Exertional Heat Stroke in an Adolescent Runner: A Case Report
J Athl Train. 2022 May 27. doi: 10.4085/1062-6050-0583.21. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 14-year-old runner indigenous to the tropics, collapsed during his first 10 km race in a hot/humid climate. Dizziness, stumbling, and loss of consciousness were symptoms of exertional heat stroke (EHS). Two days post-collapse blood tests revealed elevated hepatic transaminases consistent with hepatic injury. We discuss the return to competition progression which included a gradual increase in exercise duration, initially in cool and then in a tropical climate, and two field-based (WBGT> 29.0°C) running evaluations that simulated ...
