Factores de risco e causas<\/h2>\n

As les\u00f5es provocadas pelo calor come\u00e7am lentamente quando o corpo n\u00e3o se consegue arrefecer adequadamente durante o exerc\u00edcio ou a atividade f\u00edsica. Os factores de risco de les\u00f5es provocadas pelo calor incluem<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Idade - o corpo das crian\u00e7as n\u00e3o regula o calor corporal t\u00e3o bem como o corpo dos adultos<\/li>\n
  • Vestu\u00e1rio - cores escuras, roupa de corpo inteiro, almofadas pesadas e capacetes ret\u00eam o calor e dificultam o arrefecimento<\/li>\n
  • Desidrata\u00e7\u00e3o - mesmo uma desidrata\u00e7\u00e3o ligeira pode impedir o seu corpo de produzir suor<\/li>\n
  • Ambiente - incluindo a temperatura do ar, a humidade, a velocidade do vento e a exposi\u00e7\u00e3o solar<\/li>\n
  • Gordura corporal elevada - a gordura corporal actua como isolamento e torna o arrefecimento mais dif\u00edcil<\/li>\n
  • Condi\u00e7\u00f5es m\u00e9dicas - febre atual ou recente e tra\u00e7o falciforme aumentam o risco de les\u00f5es causadas pelo calor<\/li>\n
  • Medicamentos - o \u00e1lcool, os antidepressivos, os anti-histam\u00ednicos, os medicamentos antipsic\u00f3ticos, as benzodiazepinas, os bloqueadores beta, os diur\u00e9ticos e os estimulantes afectam o seu n\u00edvel de hidrata\u00e7\u00e3o ou a capacidade do seu corpo para responder ao calor<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
