ABSTRACT

A growing risk of heat wave has forced the countries to come up with realistic and viable solutions. Despite a lack of on-site treatment tools to deal with heat-related diseases, few studies have examined this issue. We aim to examine the literature related to thermal damage to find out solutions to this problem. The literature related to heat-related diseases suggested five methods for rapid treatment and analyzed the effects of each treatment option. It is found that the average temperature of the surface of the terrain is about 7.9°C lower with heat shield. As for the method of clothing removal, the use of scissors was faster than the use of knives in the absence of a helper (scissor 2.8±1.7 min. vs. knife 4.1±2.3 min., <0.05). Overall, ion drinks or water was found to provide a higher satisfaction than salt water according to the water intake satisfaction survey (94±10 vs. 86±9 vs. 28±19, <0.05).
