Treatment of heat exhaustion should consist of __________.
• Signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion (vs. heat stroke) • Safe cooling methods recommended in basic first aid • Why sudden or extreme cooling methods might be risky
• Which option(s) gently cool the body without causing shock or additional harm? • Does any option involve a substance or method that can irritate the skin, affect breathing, or cool too fast? • If one choice seems to combine both correct and unsafe actions, is it likely that “all the above” is appropriate?
• Verify standard first-aid guidance for treating heat exhaustion (cool, rest, hydrate, remove from heat). • Check which choice(s) focus on gradual cooling and rest in a safe environment. • Watch for any answer that includes potentially harmful methods such as harsh chemicals on the skin or extreme temperature changes.
