Overview

Heat stroke must be differentiated from other disease that may cause alteration in mental status and hyperthermia including: Neuroleptic malignant syndrome, Malignant hyperthermia, Serotonin syndrome, cocaine use and sepsis.[1][2][3][4][5][6]

Differentiating Heat stroke from other Diseases

Differentiation between 2 types of heat stroke (Classic vs Exertional) is based on history, clinical findings, and laboratory findings.[7][8] The following table summarizes their differentiating feature.

Characteristic Exertional Heat Stroke Classic Heat Stroke
Age Adults Early childhood or elderly
Health status Healthy and athlete Ill and debilitate
Weather condition Temperate or hot Heat wave
Activity Sustained or heavy exertion Sedentary
Medications or drug use Ergogenic aids, ecstasy, cocaine Diuretics, β-blockers, antihistamines,

antidepressants

Sweating Present Abscent
Laboratory findings Acid-base disturbance Metabolic acidosis Mixed metabolic and respiratory acidosis
Calcium Nl
Potassium ↓ or ↑ Nl
Phosphate
Blood glucose
Creatine kinase (CK) ↑↑↑
AST, ALT ↑↑↑
Complications Rhabdomyolysis Severe Mild
Acute renal failure Common (∼25%) Uncommon (∼5%)

Differentiating Heat stroke from other Diseases that may cause hyperthermia and altered mental status

Heat stroke must be differentiated from other conditions that may cause hyperthermia and altered mental status.[1][2][3][4][5][6]

Disease Symptoms and signs Labs Other findings
Heat stroke Electrolyte disturbances, increased CK, AST, and ALT Relevant history of excessive exercise and lack of water access
Sepsis
  • Altered mental status (confusion, altered consciousness, coma, or seizure)
  • Respiratory rate ≥22/minute
  • Systolic blood pressure ≤100 mmHg
Thrombocytopenia, leukocytosis, leukopenia, elevated Cr
Malignant hyperthermia Hypercarbia (PaCO2) >65 mmHg, hyperkalemia History of receiving anaesthetic agent
Neuroleptic malignant syndrome Electrolyte disturbances, increased CK, LDH, ALP, AST, and ALT, leukocytosis, myoglobinuria. Relevant history of recent use of anti-psychotics
Serotonin syndrome Elevated CK, LDH, ALP, AST, and ALT History of recent use of SSRIs, SNRIs , or MAOIs.
