- W4294818062 abstract "Track and field meets held in hot, humid conditions put athletes at risk for heat-related illness. This risk is heightened in highly competitive environments. Some national track and field meets are held during the summer when high school athletes are unaccustomed to competing, potentially increasing their risk for heat-related illness. PURPOSE: To examine factors associated with heat-related illness at a national high school track and field meet held during the summer (June). METHODS: Injuries and illnesses were documented for all individuals who visited the medical tent at the 2018 and 2019 New Balance Nationals Outdoor (NBNO) track and field meets in Greensboro, NC. We extracted data from those reports and examined factors associated with the occurrence of heat-related illness, including age, sex, activity, event, hydration/nutrition status, injury/illness history and environmental conditions. RESULTS: There were 12,278 athletes (6689 male; 5589 female) who registered for the 2018 and 2019 NBNO meets (mean peak temperature: 30.2 ± 4.2 °C). Heat exhaustion was the most frequently occurring illness, accounting for 10.5% (54) of all medical tent visits (512). More heat exhaustion cases were reported for male (35) than female (17) athletes, though the proportion of sex-related occurrences were not significantly different, Χ2 (1, N = 12,278) = 3.5, P = 0.06. Most athletes presenting for heat exhaustion were actively competing (39; 72.2%) or had recently finished their competition (14; 25.9%). Sprinting events accounted for 46.3% (25) of all incidents of heat exhaustion, followed by long-distance events (16.7%; 9) and middle-distance events (14.8%; 8). The daily frequency of heat exhaustion was significantly correlated with peak temperature measured inside the track (P = 0.030). CONCLUSION: Heat exhaustion was the most common illness reported at a national high school track and field meet held during the summer and accounted for a modest proportion of medical tent visits. Factors associated with more frequent heat exhaustion were higher temperature, male sex, competition, and sprinting events. These findings can inform education efforts aimed at mitigating heat-related illness for high school track and field athletes in the future.
