The thermometer broke the record! After working in the hot sun for several hours, someone in Hangzhou suffered from heatstroke and was sent to ICU! What should I pay attention to?

As the greenhouse effect becomes more and more serious, the global temperature is also rising gradually, and China is no exception. High temperatures persist in many areas of China, even exceeding 40 degrees in some areas. But in such hot weather, some people still work and live outdoors. They braved the cold winter and heat to give their families a future. However, such hot weather seriously threatens their lives and health.

On the evening of August 12, 2022, a man suffering from heatstroke was admitted to the Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine in Linping District, Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. The man was scalding, unconscious and convulsing. According to the doctor's preliminary judgment, the man may have suffered from heatstroke. So I quickly sent the man to the ICU for rescue. After further treatment by the doctor, the man is out of danger.

Upon inquiry, Hangzhou has been experiencing a high temperature of about 40 degrees recently. The heatstroke man worked in the scorching sun for several hours, and then he felt unwell. After being discovered by workers, he was rushed to the hospital. Fortunately, he was treated in time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Therefore, in hot weather, we must pay attention to our own safety. It is precisely because of the hot weather that we sweat easily. Sweating always causes our bodies to lose water and salt. So at this time, it is necessary to replenish water and salt to the body in time. Of course, when drinking water, we should also be careful not to suddenly take in a lot of water, which is likely to cause our bodies to be unable to accept water at once.

Furthermore, if someone around us has premonitory reactions such as dizziness and palpitation, then we need to put the patient in a cool and ventilated place first. If possible, wipe her whole body with a towel soaked in cold water, or wrap ice cubes with a towel and put them under his armpit and groin for physical cooling. Of course, if you have a persistent high fever, you must call 120, and don't let us handle it without authorization, so as not to miss the best treatment time.
