Heat stress: its effect and control.
Abstract
Heat cramps, heat exhaustion, and heat stroke are major disorders resulting from the body's reaction to overexposure to hot environments. Physiological and psychological adaptation to hot environments--acclimatization--can improve heat tolerance. A number of measures determine the environmental contributions to heat stress. The occupational health nurse can establish priorities for addressing the work related health needs of workers in hot environments.
