101.17 Describe the effects and treatment of the following temperature related conditions (Hypothermia)
Hypothermia Symptoms
1. Pale and Unconscious (May appear dead)
2. Breathing Slow and Shallow
3. Body may be stiff
First Aid
1. Wrap in warm blankets
2. Do NOT give hot drinks until they’re conscious
101 .17 Describe the effects and treatment of the following temperature related conditions (Frostbite)
Superficial Frostbite - Ice Crystals form on upper skin layer
Deep Frostbite - Ice Crystals form in the deeper tissues
Treatment - Get them indoors, Warm area by placing in warm water, Warm area with hot water bottles.
101 .17 Describe the effects and treatment of the following temperature related conditions (Heat Stress)
Heat Stress - Body is unable to cool itself by sweating
To avoid drink 1 cup of water every 15 minutes, wear light clothing, block out direct sunlight, and rest regularly.

Heat Exhaustion - blood flow to the brain, heart, and lungs Symptoms 1. Ashen Gray Pale Cold Skin 2. Pupils will be dilated 3. Vitals Normal, but may have weak pulse with rapid and shallow breathing 4. Body Temp may be below normal Treatment 1. Loosen Clothing (Apply Wet Cloths) 2. Move to cool or air-conditioned area 3. Do not allow victim to become chilled 4. If conscious give 1tsp of salt in 1qt of cool water 5. Take to medical facility ASAP

Heat Stoke - Extremely High Body Temp (105F+)Has a 20% mortality rate
Symptoms
1. Breathing will be deep and rapid at first, followed by shallow almost absent breathing.
2. Victim will be flushed, dry, and very hot
3. Pupils will be constricted
