Efficacy of Cold Water Immersion Prior to Endurance Cycling or Running to Increase Performance: A Critically Appraised Topic
Connor A. Burton and Christine A. Lauber
Clinical Scenario Intense aerobic exercise can produce metabolic heat at a rate of 20 kilocalories per minute in elite athletes. Heat production, therefore, can equate to a core temperature (T c ) increase of 1°C every 5–7 min. 1 The rise in T c can challenge thermoregulation of the body and
Contribution of American Football Uniforms to the Development of Exercise-Induced Hyperthermia: A Critically Appraised Topic
Grace Katt and Kevin C. Miller
Exertional heat stroke (EHS) is the most severe form of exertional heat illness (EHI) and is diagnosed when an athlete’s body’s core temperature exceeds 40.5 °C (105 °F) and they display central nervous system dysfunction. 1 EHS is one of the leading causes of sudden death in athletes. 2 In

limitations, a rectal temperature could not be determined, which is considered the gold standard in measuring body-core temperature; only an oral thermometer was available and was not used, as it is known to be an unreliable measure of body-core temperature following exercise. 7 Priority was placed on

that were most often recognized and mentioned in our participant responses included venue-specific EAPs, environmental monitoring utilizing wet-bulb globe temperature, assessing core temperature with a rectal thermometer, and lightning evacuation best practices. When reviewing past published research

• Disagree • Strongly disagree 8. When confronted with a patient exhibiting signs/symptoms of heat illness, I know how to correctly use the rectal thermometer to determine if the patient is suffering from exertional heat stroke and when to remove them from an ice bath based on their core temperature
