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...

Specific exercise heat stress protocol for a triathlete's return from exertional heat stroke.
Abstract A triathlete collapsed with exertional heatstroke (EHS) during 2 races over 3 months. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends a heat tolerance test (HTT) following EHS if there is a concern with return to play. The classical walking HTT may not be the best test to evaluate elite triathletes' heat tolerance due to race intensity, nor is it suited to evaluate acclimation ability, which may play a role in risk of heat illness. Is the athlete capable of returning to racing or should he retire from sport due to heat intolerance? Up to 90 min of cycling (70% of V˙O2max; 36°C, 50% relative humidity)...

Sepsis, Septic Shock, and Fatal Exertional Heat Stroke
Exertional heat stroke (EHS) is a clinical syndrome of hyperthermia, encephalopathy, and multiorgan dysfunction that can be irreversible and fatal. While prompt recognition and immediate, aggressive total body cooling can prevent progression of the clinical syndrome, even a short delay can exacerbate the effects of hyperthermia-induced changes. EHS is linked to an inflammatory response that is akin to the systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). However because EHS is not a common problem in most hospital intensive care units and is not in the usual list of SIRS causes, it may be overlooked easily. Furthermore norma...

Effectiveness of Cold Water Immersion in the Treatment of Exertional Heat Stroke at the Falmouth Road Race
Conclusions: CWI was found to effectively treat all cases of EHS observed in this study. CWI provided similar treatment outcomes in all patients, with no significant differences noted on the basis of initial Tr, age, or sex. On the basis of the 100% survival rate from EHS in this large cohort, it is recommended that immediate (on site) CWI be implemented for the treatment of EHS.

Late Care in Marathon Runs Leading to Exertional Heat Stroke with Multiple Organ Failure
Conclusions: This case reminds us that, despite the advancements of knowledge in the area of EHS prevention, recognition, and treatment, knowledge has not been translated into practice.

Recurrent Heat Stroke in a Runner: Race Simulation Testing for Return to Activity
ABSTRACT: Exertional heat stroke (EHS) occurs in distance runners and is a life-threatening condition. A 30-yr-old healthy recreational male distance runner (CR) collapsed at the 12-mile mark in two half marathon races 6 wk apart in fall 2009. In both episodes, CR was found on the ground confused, incoherent, sweaty, and warm to touch. The emergency medical team responded, and he was treated empirically for suspected EHS by cooling en route to the emergency department. In the emergency department, rectal temperatures were 40°C and 40.5°C for each episode, respectively. The first race start temperature was 16°C with 94% ...

Internal carotid artery dissection and delayed stroke following rugby tackle - a case report
This report will offer a unique and interesting insight into the patient's perspective of this injury – both at the time the actual stroke occurred and his subsequent rehabilitation journey. It will also discuss that whilst much publicity and training is offered around the assessment and management of head injuries and/or concussion, the possible intracerebral consequence of neck trauma sustained in contact sports seems to be less well publicised. This mechanism of injury should be considered in the emergency department as in this case the ‘typical clinical presentation’ of an extradural haematoma turned ...
