Heat Stoke (hyperthermia) is a serious and life-threatening condition resulting in an elevated body temperature (105°F or higher) among other symptoms. Other life-threatening symptoms are respiratory distress, rapid and/or erratic heart rate, organ failure, coma, and death. Emergency medical care is required to save the person's life. (Heat stroke is not the same as heat exhaustion; both conditions are serious and require medical treatment.)
What else can I help you with?
With heat stroke the body temperature can reach slightly over how many degrees?
106.
At what temperature you get heat stroke?
Heat stroke typically occurs when the body reaches a temperature of 104°F (40°C) or higher. It is a serious condition that requires immediate medical attention.
What is heart stroke?
Heat stroke occurs when the bodys cooling mechanisms fail, therfore causing body temperature to rise. Heat stroke usually occurs when the core body temperature reaches 38 degrees c or more. death occurs at 42 degrees c.
What is a heat stroke?
Heat Stroke- is a response to heat characterized by extremely high body temperature and disturbance of the sweating mechanism. it is a immediate life threatening emergency.
What is the direction in which heat will flow between two bodies depending on their?
Heat flows from the body at a higher temperature to the body at a lower temperature until they reach thermal equilibrium.
What happens if the body cannnot control its internal temperature?
Then go and find a doctor for consultation.
When two bodies are on contact heat flows from the hotter body to the colder body when does heat stop flowing?
Heat will stop flowing between the two bodies when they reach thermal equilibrium, meaning they both reach the same temperature. At this point, there is no longer a temperature difference driving the heat transfer, so no more heat will flow between them.
Immediate life threatening emergency caused by extremely high body temperature and the inability to sweat?
heat stroke
How do you spell hpythonza?
The likely word may be one of these:hypothermia - low core body temperaturehyperthermia - high body temperature (heat stroke)
What is preferred measure for heat stroke?
Quick cooling of the person. Heat stroke is not simply being exhausted. Your body has lost the ability to regulate temperature. Most heat stroke victims will have hot, DRY, red skin. Ice, cold water, applied liberally to the whole body. Get the person to medical care as soon as possible. Heat stroke can kill you or cause permanent brain damage.
What can heat stroke result in?
Due to the high internal temperature of heat stroke, permanent damage to internal organs is possible.
What to do if a suspect is suffering from heat stroke?
Immediately request medical assistance. Then, it is important to cool the victim's body temperature down immediately by submersing them into a tub of cold water. If you can cool their body temperature down within the first 30 minutes of the onset of a heat stroke, the victim has a much better chance of surviving without complications.
