Management of a Special Warfare Trainee With Repeat Exertional Heat Stroke: A Case Study
CONCLUSIONS: In individuals with repeat EHS, a prolonged recovery period followed by heat tolerance testing can be used to demonstrate appropriate thermotolerance and safely clear an individual to begin stepwise reacclimatization. Overall, patient care and military readiness may be improved by unified Department of Defense guidelines for return to duty after EHS.PMID:37290772 | DOI:10.1123/jsr.2022-0324

Current Clinical Concepts: Heat Tolerance Testing
J Athl Train. 2021 Nov 18. doi: 10.4085/1062-6050-352-21. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHeat tolerance testing (HTT) has been developed to assess readiness for work or exercise in the heat based on thermoregulation during exertion. Although the Israeli Defense Force protocol has been the most widely utilized and referenced, other protocols and variables considered in the interpretation of the test are emerging. Therefore, the purpose of this "Current Clinical Concepts" manuscript is to summarize the role of HTT following an exertional heat stroke (EHS), assess the validity of HTT, and to provide a review of best practice r...
