Explanation / Answer
ANSWER:
Wet-Bulb Globe Temperature on Previous Day and Night When the WBGT is high to extreme. the risk of heat-related problems is greater the next day; this appears to be one of the best predictors of heat illness.121 Athletes who sleep in cool or air-conditioned quarters are at less risk.
Excessive or Dark-Colored Clothing or Equipment Excessive clothing or equipment decreases the ability to thermoregulate, and dark-colored clothing or equipment may cause a greater absorption of heat from the environment. Both should be avoided.
Malignant Hyperthermia Malignant hyperthermia is caused by an autosomal dominant trait that causes muscle rigidity, resulting in elevation of body temperature due to the accelerated metabolic rate in the skeletal muscle.
