Recognition and Management of Exertional Heat Stroke

Course overview

Exertional heat stroke (EHS) remains a leading cause of death among physically active individuals, especially during summer months. Despite robust evidence on EHS recognition and treatment, gaps persist in translating this knowledge into clinical practice. This monograph aims to equip athletic trainers with the latest evidence-based insights on EHS and practical strategies to address barriers to effective management. By bridging the gap between research and application, athletic trainers will be empowered to implement current guidelines and ensure optimal patient outcomes.
