Safety & Environmental Protection (Deck) USCG Question #1632 (Set 50)

What is the principle treatment of sunstroke?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option A — cooling, removing to shaded area, and lying down

Rapidly reducing core body temperature is critical in sunstroke management. Moving the patient to a shaded, well-ventilated area, placing them in a recumbent position, and initiating active cooling methods prevent irreversible neurological damage or multi-organ failure.
