Heat stroke is a series of pathological changes caused by heat production and heat dissipation of the human body in a high temperature environment. When we show symptoms of heat stroke, one of the first measures of care must be heat dissipation. Heat dissipation takes many measures, such as moving the patient to some cool place, giving him physical cooling, such as wiping with alcohol, soaking him in water, etc. These are all ways of heat dissipation. If the patient shows thirst and vomiting due to heatstroke, pay attention to supplement some water and electrolytes. When the patient shows coma due to heatstroke, we should pay attention to protecting the patient's airway from suffocation due to coma.
