Abstract

We present the seven first cases with heatstroke in Granada provinces. Six patients were elderly man with passive heatstroke, the other was a young adult with active heatstroke. The clinic picture was evident: fever, hiperpnea, anhidrosis and mental impairment; there was not peculiar biochemic sign though the prognosis depended of the development of tubular kidney failure. We expose the main phisiopathologic therapeutic measure.
