Summer is upon us and prehospital providers are likely to see more patients suffering from heat-related illness. The most serious heat-related illness — heat stroke — has a mortality rate of up to 30%, so it's important that we're prepared to treat hyperthermic patients.

This lesson will discuss heat stroke — the different types, how to diagnose it, and how to treat it, including some of evidence-based patient cooling strategies.
