What to do if someone has heat exhaustion

如果有人中暑了該怎麼辦

If they can be cooled down within half an hour, then heat exhaustion is not normally serious.

如果能在半小時內體温降下來，那麼中暑通常不嚴重。

The NHS advice is to: 

·Move them to a cool place.

·Get them to lie down and raise their feet slightly

·Get them to drink plenty of water - sports or rehydration drinks are also OK

·Cool their skin - spray or sponge them with cool water and fan them. Cold packs around the armpits or neck are good too

英國國家醫療體系的建議是：

·把它們移到涼爽的地方。

·讓他們躺下，稍微抬高腳

·讓他們多喝水——運動飲料或補水飲料也可以

·冷卻皮膚——用涼水噴灑或擦洗，然後用扇風。在腋窩或脖子周圍放冷敷袋也很好

However, if they do not recover within 30 minutes, then what follows is heat stroke.

然而，如果他們在30分鐘內沒有恢復，那麼接下來就是中暑。

It is a medical emergency and you should call 999.

這是醫療緊急情況，你應該撥打999。

People with heat stroke may stop sweating even though they are too hot, their temperature could have passed 40C and they may have seizures or lose consciousness.

中暑患者可能會因為太熱而停止出汗，他們的體温可能超過40攝氏度，他們可能會癲癇發作或失去意識。
