Abstract

Due to the immature development of temperature regulation in the central nervous system, children have a weakened ability to regulate heat and are susceptible to heatstroke, which can lead to organ damage. Based on the evidence evaluation criteria of the Oxford Centre for Evidence-Based Medicine, this expert consensus group evaluated the current evidence on heatstroke in children, and formed this consensus through thorough discussion with the aim of providing reference for the prevention and treatment of heatstroke in children. This consensus includes classifications, pathogenesis, prevention measures, as well as pre-hospital and in-hospital treatment plans for heatstroke in children.
