Recently,

In Taizhou , many hospitals have also reported the disease.

Since July,

has received 21 patients with severe heatstroke as of the 15th

Among them, 16 cases were severe and 2 died within 7 days

The doctor reminded:

"Heat kills people" is not just talk. Just

severe heat stroke will lead to

high fever, no sweating, convulsions, coma, cardiac and respiratory arrest, etc.

This is what we professionally call

"heat stroke" or "sunstroke"

It is really fatal

and the mortality rate is As high as 20%-70%

htmlThe mortality rate of heat stroke in people over 150 years old reaches 80%

Two elderly people in their 70s passed away unfortunately

At 11 a.m. on July 8, Granny Liu (pseudonym), who was in her 70s, went missing from home. When he was found, he had fainted on the road. He was later sent to our hospital by enthusiastic citizens and was diagnosed with heat stroke (severe heat stroke).

"When he arrived at the hospital around 1 p.m. that day, the patient's body temperature was as high as 41.6°C, he was in shock, his whole body was hot and sweatless, and he was completely unconscious." said Bao Liuqian, the attending physician in the emergency department who received the patient.

After rescue, Grandma Liu’s body temperature returned to normal, but multiple organs failed and she unfortunately died after being discharged and returned home.

Coincidentally, on July 14, another patient died of heat stroke.

Uncle Wu (pseudonym), 77 years old, went out at about 8 a.m. and was found unconscious and unresponsive by his family members at the edge of the field around 12:50 a.m.

120 After the emergency doctor arrived at the scene, they found that the uncle could no longer feel the carotid artery pulse, was breathing like a sigh, had burns on the skin of both lower limbs, and had a body temperature as high as 41.3°C. After being sent to the hospital for emergency treatment, rescue efforts failed and he died unfortunately.

Bao Liuqian reminds: In "barbecue weather", heatstroke is more likely to occur and may be fatal! Please cherish life and do a good job in heatstroke prevention and cooling.

"The longer the core temperature of the human body exceeds 40°C, the more severe the damage to the organs. But for ordinary citizens, it is difficult to tell whether it is heat stroke." Bao Liuqian emphasized that once you find someone with high fever or high fever around you on a hot day, If you have no sweating or have impaired consciousness, you should seek medical attention immediately.

In addition, don’t think that only the elderly and infirm will fall victim to this scam. Young friends should also be vigilant.

There are also young people diagnosed with heat stroke

At noon on July 14, the emergency department of the hospital also received a 20-year-old young man, Xiao Xu (pseudonym).

While working in the factory, Xiao Xu felt dizzy and weak, so his colleagues sent him to the nearest Tantou branch of the Medical Community for treatment.

His body temperature was as high as 40.3℃. After emergency treatment by the branch doctor, he was transferred to the emergency department of our hospital. After treatment, his body temperature dropped to 38.3°C, his body became more comfortable, and his spirits improved.

Can’t bear to turn on the air conditioner and fan

A 91-year-old man in Taizhou fainted from the heat

html The 191-year-old Grandma Zhou was sent to the emergency department of the East Campus of Taizhou Hospital by her family due to heatstroke a few days ago. The weather has been really hot these days, but grandma is reluctant to turn on the air conditioner, not even the fan. It was only the next day that my family discovered that my grandma had fainted and was feeling hot all over. She was sent to the hospital for examination. Her body temperature was as high as 40°C. After emergency rescue, her condition was now stable, but she still needed to be hospitalized.

According to Dr. Zhang Chuang from the emergency department of the East Campus of Taizhou Hospital, they have treated three relatively severe heat stroke patients in the past week, all of whom were elderly people who were reluctant to turn on the air conditioner.

So

who is more likely to "care" for heat stroke?

What symptoms indicate possible heat stroke?

I have heat stroke, how to provide first aid on site?

What else can you do to prevent heat stroke?

4. On-site rescue measures for heat stroke

If someone around you has more severe symptoms of heat stroke, you should dial "120" for help as soon as possible. At the same time, quickly evacuate the high temperature environment that causes heat stroke, choose a cool and ventilated place to rest, and pay attention to keeping the respiratory tract open. The patient should also be treated to lower his body temperature and replenish water, preferably water containing electrolytes, such as functional drinks.
