The man died of heat stroke body temperature of 42 ° C, the doctor called you sauna day do not "hard to carry", after sweating suddenly "no sweat" to be alert

Shencheng entered the "scorching" mode

The hottest day of the year is here! In the past two days, most parts of the country are under the scorching sun, in Shanghai, the temperature has also gone all the way up, from 33 ° C, 35 ° C, all the way to 38 ° C, outdoor high temperature barbecue mode, accompanied by continuous high temperature weather, the incidence of heat stroke has also increased. Recently, a middle-aged man in Huizhou, Guangdong Province, had a body temperature of nearly 42 ° C after heat stroke, and finally died of ineffective rescue. In this regard, the doctor once again reminded: in the high temperature environment, if there is sweating, thirst, chest tightness, dizziness, nausea, limb weakness and numbness, you must pay attention to it, you may have heat stroke, do not "hard carry".

After the ambush, the topic of heat stroke has become one of the most concerned topics of the public, which is not only uncomfortable, but also may bring fatal consequences, recently, "man heat stroke body temperature 42 ° C unfortunate death" directly on the hot search.

"The increase in air humidity after the ambush, coupled with the continuous high temperature, is very prone to heat stroke." Zhou Yong, chief physician of the Department of Internal Medicine of Shanghai Renai Hospital, explained that heat stroke is an acute disease in which thermoregulation function disorder, water electrolysis metabolism disorder, and nervous system and circulatory system dysfunction occur in an environment with high temperature and high heat and no air circulation. Heat stroke is mainly related to high temperature, direct sunlight, labor intensity, air circulation and other factors, in addition, personal weakness, poor nutritional status, excessive fatigue, lack of sleep, obesity and other factors that induce heat stroke.

How to determine whether it is heat stroke? Heat stroke can be divided into aura heat stroke, mild heat stroke and severe heat stroke, after which a series of symptoms of the disease from mild to severe will occur. Among them, severe heat stroke is divided into three types: heat spasms, heat exhaustion and heat stroke. Heat stroke is a particularly serious one, the patient's body temperature can be as high as 40 ° C or more, early a lot of sweating, and then "no sweat", accompanied by different degrees of impaired consciousness, some can even lead to shock, serious can cause coma, liver and kidney failure, and even multi-organ failure and other manifestations, the condition worsens quickly, the case fatality rate is extremely high.

So, what to do if you have heat stroke? Dr. Zhou Yong suggested that once you feel heat stroke, you should immediately stop your activities, move to a cool and ventilated place, turn on the electric fan or air conditioner, take off excess clothes, and let the body quickly dissipate heat; people around you can use cold water or alcohol to help patients wipe themselves, or use wet towels and cold patches to cool down.

During this period, patients can be allowed to take antipyretic drugs, drink more light salt water and mung bean soup to replenish the lost body fluids, and closely observe the patient's condition. If the patient is unconscious, or the symptoms are difficult to alleviate or disappear, it may be severe heat stroke, and while taking treatment measures, dial "120" in time to send the patient to the hospital for treatment.

How can heat stroke be prevented in hot weather? Since the high temperature can not be hidden, usually should do a good job of prevention, Dr. Zhou Yong suggested: when the weather is hot, regardless of thirst, you should drink more water, especially when you sweat more, you must replenish water in time; usually eat more vegetables and fruits with high water content, to maintain adequate sleep; avoid going out during high temperature periods, if you can't avoid it, prepare sunscreen appliances, and apply sunscreen, travel to prepare some anti-heat cooling drugs.

Talking about how special groups of people can spend the summer, Song He, director of Shanghai Yuanda Cardiothoracic Hospital, found that many patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases have a misunderstanding, always thinking that the summer blood pressure is the lowest in the year, the symptoms are relatively stable, and they stop the drug or change the medicine without authorization. Not really. High temperature weather is also a high incidence of cardiovascular disease, especially when the weather continues to be sweltering, the human metabolism and blood circulation are significantly accelerated, the subcutaneous blood vessels are dilated, the blood flow is increased by 3-5 times than usual, and the burden on the heart is increased. Secondly, the summer high temperature, the human body sweats a lot, the body water with a large amount of sweat evaporation to cause blood viscosity, easy to lead to cardiovascular and cerebrovascular ischemia and even embolism.

In addition, the heat makes people prone to emotional "heat stroke", irritability and irritability, coupled with long days and short nights, sleep quality "discount" and other factors, patients are prone to angina, heart rate aberration, cerebral infarction, myocardial infarction and other situations, and even sudden death.

Therefore, high temperature weather will also bring tests to patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Director Song He reminded that Futian should replenish more water and eat a light and balanced diet. Patients with chronic diseases such as hypertension, heart disease and diabetes should be regularly examined outpatiently, take medication strictly as required in accordance with the doctor's instructions, and do not stop the drug without authorization. Cardiovascular patients should avoid overwork and spicy and stimulating diets, and eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. You should avoid moving in high temperatures, pay attention to getting up in the morning to drink a glass of water, reduce blood viscosity, maintain proper exercise, and avoid great joy and great sorrow.
