  • What is the topic of this review?
    Exertional heat illness (EHI) remains a persistent problem for athletes and individuals. This threat remains despite numerous athletic position statements and occupational guidance policies. This review explores primary evidence that demonstrates a direct association between ‘known’ risk factors and EHI.
  • What advances does it highlight?
    Primary evidence to support ‘known’ risk factors associated with EHI is not comprehensive. Furthermore, it is not evident that single individual factors predispose individuals to greater risk. In fact, the evidence indicates that EHI can manifest in non‐hostile compensable environments when a combination of risk factors is prevalent.
Abstract
Despite the widespread knowledge of exertional heat illness (EHI) and clear guidance for its prevention, the incidence of EHI remains high. We carried out a systematic review of available literature …
