How is heatstroke? Why is it so dangerous?

Heatstroke is a serious heatstroke symptom. Heatstroke is caused by high temperature and high humidity in summer or in high temperature and high humidity working environment, which leads to multiple organ failure, and the body temperature is raised by the ambient temperature, causing serious reactions such as fever, dizziness, coma and shock. If the patient is not sent to the hospital in time, it will lead to death.

In fact, in our hometown of Chongqing, heatstroke is also called heatstroke, especially in summer. I remember the summer vacation when I was fourteen, and the rice in the field was ripe. It was August and it was hot. In the early morning, my father and I went to the field to collect rice. Because it was too hot, I wore a long-sleeved T-shirt and was not ventilated, which led to nausea around 11 noon.

After my heatstroke, my father quickly told me to take off my clothes, go to a stream under the shade of a tree, apply cold water to my forehead, and quickly cool down. After that heatstroke, I went home and rested for three or four days before I recovered. In the meantime, I drink mint water and eat watermelon. Because I had mild heatstroke symptoms and found it early, I took timely measures to cool down and it didn't get worse.

Just a few days after my heatstroke, I heard that a boy of 17 years old came from the village to fight millet and died of heatstroke.

Here's the story. For more than 90 years, many young people from poor families in mountainous areas came to the village to contract the work of harvesting rice when it was time to harvest rice. They usually contract projects together in groups of three or five in the same village.

It is said that at the end of August of that summer, a group of young men from Mao Yalin Farm were in the village to play millet for Liu Youfa's family. Because there is a lot of work to pack, this group of young people have already harvested the millet of two families in one morning. At this time, it is already noon 12: 30. I wanted to eat rice after harvesting, but I didn't know that one of the youngest people had heatstroke and barely supported his body to continue harvesting rice in the field. When the rice was harvested, he fell into the ground, and his companions who came together quickly carried him back to the shade. I tried to give him a rest, but I didn't send him to the doctor in time. I didn't know that heatstroke caused the onset of fever, which is called heatstroke. In the end, the young man passed away and died unfortunately. Therefore, once heatstroke occurs, you must not be careless.

First, the factors that cause heatstroke

1. In a windless environment where the ambient temperature is higher than 32 degrees Celsius and the humidity is higher than 60 degrees Celsius, the body temperature rises due to the ambient temperature, leading to organ failure and heatstroke.

2. The human body does strenuous exercise and generates a lot of heat energy. Because the environment or your own clothes are too thick to dissipate heat, it can also lead to heatstroke.

3. The function of sweat glands is impaired, and it is also an important factor to induce heatstroke.

Second, the main symptoms of heatstroke

Initial reaction: heatstroke is the first symptom of heatstroke, such as dizziness, dizziness, nausea and vomiting. At this time, if the temperature can be reduced in time and sent to the doctor, the condition can be effectively controlled.

Mid-term reaction: When heatstroke occurs, if the patient fails to cool down, rest and treat in time, it will lead to rapid heartbeat, palpitation, vomiting, shock and coma. At this time, if the patient can be cooled in time and sent to the hospital quickly, the life of the patient can be saved.

Terminal reaction: At this time, the patient is in shock and coma with high fever, and then rhabdomyolysis, acute renal failure, liver failure, disseminated intravascular coagulation, or multiple organ failure occur. At this time, he should be sent to the hospital for emergency treatment, otherwise there is still a chance of survival. If we don't send him to the hospital at this time, it's really hopeless.

Heatstroke is a severe reaction that the symptoms of heatstroke get worse after not seeing a doctor in time. It is heatstroke, because heatstroke can lead to high fever, multiple organ failure and shock, which leads to the death of the patient, so it is so dangerous.
