摘要: • We observed a 16-month-old infant with residual brain damage following heat stroke from being left in parked automobile. In contrast adults, whom usually follows strenuous exercise, the condition infants results excessive environmental temperature and/or dehydration. Early recognition of illness is imperative. Three cardinal features are hot, dry skin, central nervous system disturbance, and hyperpyrexia. Immediate treatment should be aimed at improving circulation volume expanders rapid cooling. Other supportive measures may necessary to control seizures, renal failure, hematologic abnormalities, or hepatic involvement. ( Am J Dis Child 130:1250-1251, 1976)
