How should a patient suffering from heat exhaustion be treated?
⢠Signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion versus heat stroke ⢠Basic first-aid treatment for heat-related illness ⢠The role of rest, cooling, and hydration in recovery
⢠Which option best helps lower the patientâs body temperature in a safe, controlled way? ⢠Which choices might actually increase the bodyâs heat load or physical stress? ⢠Which response sounds most like proper first aid, and least like âpushingâ the patient to keep working?
⢠Verify which options involve cooling and rest in a shaded or cool environment ⢠Check if any option asks the patient to keep exerting themselves despite symptoms ⢠Look out for options involving stimulants or sending the patient back to work too soon, which are generally unsafe in heat illness
