HEAT FATIGUE-EXHAUSTION-STROKE Heat also has the potential to be of great danger to the outdoor athlete, especially during the summer. Side effects range from sluggishness and fatigue to dehydration and potentially fatal heat stroke. Fortunately for us athletes, heat-related illnesses are fairly easy to prevent and treat. HEAT FATIGUE HEAT EXHAUSTION HEAT STROKE HERE'S WHAT TO DO HEAT FATIGUE One such heat-related illness is heat fatigue. It's generally caused by fluid loss and responds well to rehydration and rest. Because an inadequate diet or caloric intake is common with the summer athlete, it too should be evaluated when sluggishness and fatigue are experienced. Like heat-related fatigue, heat cramps are also a result of insufficient fluid intake. These painful muscle spasms generally occur in hot and/or humid environments when the athlete overexerts him or herself. BACK TO MENU HEAT EXHAUSTION Heat exhaustion is another common heat-related illness experienced by athletes in the summer. Simply speaking, you're working the body so hard it's just too damn hot to carry on! Technically speaking, it's a group of symptoms that occur when your body's rate of heat production is greater than it's rate of heat dissipation. Symptoms generally begin to occur when the body's core temperature rises above 102 F. The onset is sudden with the athlete becoming clumsy as well as confused. Additional symptoms include headache, dizziness, chills, nausea, vomiting and weakness. Signs of heat exhaustion are an ash-gray color of the skin, lowered blood pressure, and a rapid pulse. Immediate rehydration, body cooling, and rest is crucial.

CDC, National Center for Environmental Health During 1979-1996, exposure to extreme hot temperatures caused an annual average of 381 deaths in the United States. Persons at increased risk for heat-related illness and death include the very young (infants), the elderly ( 65 years); persons with impaired mobility; persons physically active in hot environments, who fail to rest frequently or drink enough fluids; and persons using certain drugs which impair thermoregulatory function or inhibit perspiration. In addition, excessive alcohol consumption can cause dehydration and be a predisposing risk factor. This report describes four instances of heat-related deaths that occurred in the State of Missouri in 1998, summarizes U. S. heat-related deaths during 1979-1996, and describes the risk factors associated with heat-related illness and death. For more information on extreme visit this site

Essential Heat and Dehydration Information As student athletes head back to the practice fields, so too does the concern about heat and dehydration. The National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA), a non-profit, educational organization with 25 years in the strength and conditioning industry has provided general, scientific based information on precautions to prevent and monitor heat and dehydration complications while training. Get in shape first. Hydrate before, during and after training sessions. Schedule training sessions during cooler times of the day. It is a physiological fact that more work can be done in cooler and less humid conditions. This allows players to focus on sport techniques and maintain proper mechanics, and reduces the exposure to heat-related injury. Practice schedules should be adjusted to accommodate for the environmental conditions. Monitor body weight.

MAYOR/CITY COUNCIL BY DEPARTMENT BY SERVICES EMPLOYMENT ... HOME Search Calendar Maps Service Directory Word Search PFD: Heat Stress (Sun Stress) Hot weather triggers a variety of medical emergencies. Even healthy people should take it easy during extremely high temperatures, and those with respiratory and other health problems must be especially careful. Stay out of the sun as much as possible. Drink extra fluids, but avoid alcoholic beverages. Alcohol can cause dehydration. The best ways to prevent a sun stress emergency are: Drink before you're thirsty and drink often. Eat a healthy diet. Wear a hat or cap, keep the neck covered and wear loose fitting clothing. If you can, work in the cool hours of the day or evening. The greatest amount of heat loss from the body occurs at the head. This is why it is important to wear a hat or cap in the sun. The Phoenix Fire Department does not recommend the use of table salt or salt tablets to replace body electrolytes. Many electrolyte replacement drinks are available on the market. Electrolytes are crucial for the proper functioning of the body. Common electrolytes are: Calcium Sodium Potassium Heat-related injuries fall into three major categories: Heat cramps Heat exhaustion Heatstroke Heat cramps are muscular pains and spasms that occur when the body loses electrolytes during profuse sweating or when inadequate electrolytes are taken into the body. They usually begin in the arms, legs or abdomen, and often precede heat exhaustion.
