Jogger's heat stroke.

M E Beard, J W Hamer, G Hamilton

    The New Zealand Medical Journal
    |March 14, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Heat stroke is a serious risk for joggers, potentially causing brain dysfunction and blood clotting abnormalities. This condition, characterized by thrombocytopenia and reduced liver-synthesized clotting factors, necessitates its recognition as a significant jogging hazard.

    Area of Science:

    • Sports Medicine
    • Exercise Physiology
    • Environmental Health

    Background:

    • Jogging is a popular aerobic exercise.
    • Heat stroke is a severe heat-related illness.
    • Athletic activities in hot environments pose risks.

    Observation:

    • Two patients experienced heat stroke after jogging.
    • The most prominent symptom was transient cerebral dysfunction.
    • No hemorrhagic complications were observed.

    Findings:

    • Significant hemostatic system alterations occurred.
    • Patients exhibited thrombocytopenia (low platelet count).
    • Reduced synthesis of liver-derived clotting factors was noted.
    • Disseminated intravascular coagulation was absent.

    Implications:

    • Heat stroke should be recognized as a potential hazard associated with jogging.
    • Awareness of hematological changes in heat stroke is crucial for athletes.
    • Further research into exercise-induced heat illness and its management is warranted.
