Out-of-Hospital Cold Water Immersion for Classic (Non-Exertional) Heat Stroke Guided by Real-Time Core Temperature Monitoring: A Case Series
Prehosp Emerg Care. 2022 Nov 29:1-6. doi: 10.1080/10903127.2022.2148795. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHeat stroke is a problem that occurs primarily in the out-of-hospital environment. "Cool first, transport second" has been emphasized in consensus statements and systematic reviews regarding the treatment of exertional heat stroke by both EMS and the sports medicine/athletic training communities. However, there remains little guidance on cooling recommendations for the out-of-hospital care of non-exertional heat stroke or classic heat stroke. There is no consensus on the safety or feasibility of cooling classic heat strok...

Body mass index, but not sex, influences exertional heat stroke risk in young healthy men and women
Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol. 2022 Nov 7. doi: 10.1152/ajpregu.00168.2022. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExertional heat stroke (EHS) remains a persistent threat for individuals working or playing in the heat, including athletes, the military and emergency service personnel. However, influence of biological sex and/or body mass index (BMI) on the risk of EHS remain poorly understood. The purpose of this study was to retrospectively assess the influence of sex and BMI on risk of EHS in the active duty U.S. Army. We analyzed data from 2016-2021, using a matched case-control approach, where each individual with a di...

It's getting hot in here: heat stroke in children and young people for paediatric clinicians
Children and young people are at increased risk of heat-related illness such as heat stroke. This is largely due to their anatomy, physiology and overall development. What makes them particularly vulnerable is their reliance on others to protect them from extreme heat and provide shade and water at times of prolonged exposure. With a rise in environmental temperatures associated with global warming, experts are warning of an increase in paediatric heat-related illnesses. Management of heat stroke in adults is well documented, however literature on children and young people is variable.

Identification of therapeutic targets in a murine model of severe exertional heat stroke
Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol. 2022 Oct 25. doi: 10.1152/ajpregu.00150.2022. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTExertional heat stroke (EHS) is a potentially lethal condition resulting from high core body temperatures (TC) in combination with a systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) with varying degrees of severity across victims, and limited understanding of the underlying mechanism(s). We established a mouse model of severe EHS in an effort to identify mechanisms of hyperthermia / inflammation that may be responsible for organ damage. Mice were forced to run on a motorized wheel in a 37.5°C chamber until los...

Neuromotor deficits and altered physiological responses to repeated exertional heat stroke exposures in mice
In conclusion, exposure to a second EHS after two weeks, leads to increased exercise times in the heat, symptom limitation at a lower Tc,max, and greater deficits in neuromotor and behavioral function during recovery.PMID:36279505 | DOI:10.1152/ajpregu.00152.2022
