Demography and Clinical Profile of Heatstroke Patients
As global temperatures rise and heatwaves become more frequent due to climate change, heatstroke is progressively emerging as a major public health issue. Risk factors such as occupational sun exposure, comorbidities, and extreme temperatures contribute to heatstroke incidence and severity. Urgent public health strategies are needed to mitigate heatwave impacts and protect vulnerable populations. Further research into novel treatment approaches may improve outcomes for heatstroke patients.
