🔍 Key Concepts

• Difference between heat exhaustion, heat stroke, and milder conditions like heat cramps • What it means when the body can no longer control its core temperature (failure of the thermoregulatory system) • Typical signs and symptoms of the most severe heat illness (mental status, sweating, skin temperature)

💭 Think About

• Which of these conditions is considered a true medical emergency because the body’s temperature control system has failed? • For each option, ask: Is the body still trying to cool itself (sweating, dizziness, weakness), or has that system shut down? • Which condition is usually associated with very high body temperature and often altered consciousness (confusion, seizures, unconsciousness)?

✅ Before You Answer

• Compare which option is known as the most severe form of heat-related illness • Identify which condition often presents with hot, possibly dry skin and impaired mental status • Verify which condition is defined by a failure of the body’s thermoregulation, not just fluid and salt loss
