Return to activity considerations in a football player predisposed to exertional heat illness: A case study

Article Abstract:

A football player predisposed to exertional heat illness is studied to consider return to activity. It is suggested that the athletes return to activity and process of risk is complex and requires inputs from all the components of the team to allow for re-acclimatization to exercise in the heat prior to resumption particularly following a long convalescent period after more severe heat related illness.
