    Heat exhaustion is a heat-related illness that can occur after
    you've been exposed to high temperatures, and it often is
    accompanied by dehydration.

    Water depletion Salt depletion


    Signs include excessive Signs include nausea and
    thirst, weakness, headache, vomiting, muscle cramps,
    and loss of consciousness. and dizziness.

    ! Without proper intervention, heat exhaustion can progress to heat stroke


    Symptoms
     Core temperature may be normal to elevated (< 40oC)
     Confusion
     Dark-colored urine (a sign of dehydration)
     Dizziness
     Fainting
     Fatigue
     Headache
     Muscle or abdominal cramps
     Nausea, vomiting, or diarrhea
     Pale skin
     Profuse sweating
     Rapid heartbeat
    Treatment
     get out of the heat and rest, try to find the nearest cool and shady place.
     Remove any tight or unnecessary clothing.
     Rehydration : Drink plenty of fluid, especially oral-electrolyte – containing solution
    (avoid caffeine and alcohol), for water depletion must replaced slowly to prevent
    decreased serum osmolality too quickly and iatrogenically precipitate cerebral
    edema.
     Take a cool shower, bath, or sponge bath.
     Apply other cooling measures such as fans or ice towels.
    If such measures fail to provide relief within 15 minutes seek emergency medical help
     Any electrolyte abnormalities  admnistered IV normal saline until stable
    hemodynamically
     Fluid and electrolyte evaluation
    Risk Factor
    Heat exhaustion is strongly related to the heat index, which is a measurement of how hot you
    feel when the effects of relative humidity and air temperature are combined. A relative
    humidity of 60% or more hampers sweat evaporation, which hinders your body's ability to cool
    itself.
    The risk of heat-related illness dramatically increases when the heat index climbs to 90 degrees
    or more. So it's important -- especially during heat waves -- to pay attention to the reported heat
    index, and also to remember that the heat index is even higher when you are standing in full
    sunshine.

    If you live in an urban area, you may be especially prone to develop heat exhaustion during a
    prolonged heat wave, particularly if there are stagnant atmospheric conditions and poor air
    quality. In what is known as the "heat island effect," asphalt and concrete store heat during the
    day and only gradually release it at night, resulting in higher nighttime temperatures.
    Other risk factors associated with heat-
    related illness include:
    • Age. Infants and children up to age 4, and adults over age 65, are particularly vulnerable
    because they adjust to heat more slowly than other people.

    • Certain health conditions. These include heart, lung, or kidney disease, obesity or
    underweight, high blood pressure, diabetes, mental illness, sickle cell trait, alcoholism,
    sunburn, and any conditions that cause fever. People with diabetes are at increased risk of
    emergency room visits, hospitalization, and death from heat-related illness and may be
    especially likely to underestimate their risk during heat waves.

    • Medications. These include some medicines in the following classes: diuretics, sedatives,
    tranquilizers, stimulants, heart and blood pressure medications, and medications for
    psychiatric conditions that affect your ability to cope with extreme heat and humidity.
