We detail key considerations for the development of extreme heat policies in sport and exercise. Policies should account for the four environmental parameters (ambient temperature, humidity, air velocity, and mean radiant temperature) and two personal (activity and clothing) parameters that determine the prevailing thermoregulatory strain during exercise in the heat. Considerations for how to measure environmental stress and convey the level of risk are discussed. Finally, we highlight the need to include feasible cooling strategies that are relevant for the prevailing environmental conditions.
我们详细阐述了体育和运动领域极端高温政策制定的关键考量因素。政策应考虑四个环境参数(环境温度、湿度、风速和平均辐射温度)以及两个个人参数(活动和着装),这些参数决定了在高温环境下运动时主要的体温调节压力。文中讨论了如何测量环境压力以及传达风险水平的相关考量。最后,我们强调需要纳入与当前环境条件相关的可行降温策略。
