背景
热疾病每年影响大量的人，并且随着气候变化导致全球气温升高，热疾病正在成为越来越多的病理原因。
目的
本文将综述对热的生理反应，以及导致热病的病理生理过程。重点将是为全科医生（GP）提供如何预防患者中暑以及如何预测风险最大的理解。
讨论
热疾病可能被认为是轻微或重大疾病，其中任何一种都可能出现在GP身上。必须考虑确定哪些人需要更关键的干预，以及何时转移到更高级别的护理。
BACKGROUND
Heat illnesses affect a large number of people every year and are becoming an increasing cause of pathology as climate change results in increasing global temperatures.
OBJECTIVE
This article will review the physiological responses to heat, as well as the pathophysiological processes that result in heat illnesses. The emphasis will be on providing general practitioners (GPs) with an understanding of how to prevent heat illness in their patients and how to predict who is most at risk.
DISCUSSION
Heat illnesses may be thought of as minor or major illnesses, any of which may present to the GP. Consideration must be given to identifying those who need more critical intervention and on when to transfer for higher-level of care.
