Public knowledge, attitudes, and practices toward heat stroke in Ningbo, China: a cross-sectional study
While the Ningbo public showed sufficient general understanding of heat stroke, the study found serious gaps in understanding specific risk factors and preventive measures. The findings suggest tailored health education programs, particularly for young people and less educated populations, to promote community-wide awareness and prevention.
