Omtale

This authoritative and comprehensive 1996 publication examines a range of medical syndromes characterised by serious and unpredicted internal overheating of the body. These episodes may arise suddenly, with life-threatening consequences, either as a result of heat stress, exceptional physical exertion or in response to certain common anaesthetics and some drugs.
