heat syncope : ウィキペディア英語版 | heat syncope Heat syncope is fainting or dizziness as a result of overheating (''syncope'' is the medical term for fainting). It is a type of heat illness. The basic symptom of heat syncope is fainting, with or without mental confusion.〔http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC164365/〕 Heat syncope is caused by peripheral vessel dilation, resulting in diminished blood flow to the heart and dehydration. ==Causes== Heat syncope occurs in a warm environment when blood pressure is lowered as the body dilates (widens) arterioles (small blood vessels) in the skin to radiate heat. This condition occurs within five days of heat acclimatization, before the blood volume expands.〔http://www.sportsci.org/encyc/drafts/Heat_acclimatization/heataccl.doc〕 The result is less blood to the brain, causing light-headedness and fainting when a person stands up quickly or stands for a long period of time. Those who perform strenuous work outside in warm climates are at particular risk.
