2, 3 Additionally, our knowledge base and proven management protocols allow us to establish effective prevention and management strategies to minimize the risk of and improve the outcome from EHS, thereby affecting public health via policy creation and modification.Įxercise-associated muscle cramps (EAMCs) are sudden or sometimes progressively and noticeably evolving, involuntary, painful contractions of skeletal muscle during or after exercise. We now possess the knowledge to nearly assure survival from this potentially fatal injury if EHS is quickly and appropriately recognized and treated at the time of collapse. The care of exertional heat-stroke (EHS) patients has come a long way in the past millennia. This document serves as the current position statement for the National Athletic Trainers' Association (NATA) and replaces the document that was published in 2002. Our current knowledge base has allowed us to greatly enhance the level of care that can be provided for athletes with these medical conditions. The risk of EHI is ever present during exercise in the heat but can also occur in “normal” environmental conditions. The prevention, recognition, and treatment of exertional heat illnesses (EHIs) are core components of sports medicine services at all levels of sport.
