Warm blanket study for people with heat stroke
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a non-cooling blanket can manage body temperature in people with heat stroke, and compares it to standard cooling methods. It may help find a simpler, less intensive way to control dangerous overheating.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether a special in-hospital cooling plan can help people with heat stroke recover better. It's designed for patients who arrive at the emergency room with a high fever and need immediate care.
This study looks at how well the body controls temperature during exercise after a past heat-stroke episode, in a military setting. It may help improve safety and recovery plans for people who have had exercise-related heat stroke.
This study aims to create a system that can warn about heat stroke early and predict how patients will recover. It may help doctors better treat people with heat stroke and improve outcomes.
This study tests a new cooling method for people who exercise in heat and might be at risk for heat stroke. If you join, researchers will see how quickly this method lowers your body temperature and helps your body recover.
This study tests how well emergency room protocols work for treating high body temperature. It is for healthy people who are not taking certain medications or supplements that affect how the body handles heat.
This study looks at how your body temperature changes during a heat challenge and whether different cooling methods can help bring it down. If you are a generally healthy adult who exercises regularly, you may help researchers find better ways to prevent heat-related illness.
