Heat syncope



Heat syncope another stage in the same process as heat stroke, occurs under similar conditions as heat stroke and is not distinguished from the latter by some authorities. The basic symptom of heat syncope is a body temperature above 40°C (104°F) with fainting, or weakness but without mental confusion, which does occur in heat stroke.
