Abstract
Exertional heatstroke is a syndrome occurring in the young and active population when homeostatic thermoregulatory mechanisms are unable to meet the demands of heat stress. In most cases its occurrence is sporadic and it is regarded as an extreme medical emergency that might result in death if not immediately diagnosed and properly treated. Following some simple regulations and providing proper instructions have proven efficient in preventing this serious disease.Entities:
