Heat exhaustion, and heat stroke are both caused from heat. Heat exhaustion comes on before heat stroke, being more mild, and not as severe. On the other hand, heat stroke is very serious and can result in damage to your internal organs, and/or brain. Tho very similar, they are different ways to handle both, along with a few different symptoms. With heat exhaustion the suspected case would have cool moist skin, heavy sweating, and low blood pressure. Heat stroke has alternate sweating, and their temperature being around 104 degrees fahrenheit. They both share the symptoms of nausea , dizziness, fatigue, and headache. If suspected heat exhaustion, you should sit in a cool shaded spot, rest, as well as drinking water and/or sports drink. If suspected heat stroke, seek medical help immediately, the longer it is left untreated the more damage done.

felt that this needed a better answer, hope this helps.

"Artificial kidneys" do not function in all respects like a natural kidney. What is one inherent problem and what is its practic
kari74 [83]

Answer:

The confluence of an increasing prevalence of end-stage renal disease (ESRD), clinical trial data suggestive of benefit from quotidian dialysis, and ongoing cost/benefit reanalysis of healthcare spending have stimulated interest in technological improvements in provision of ESRD care. For the last decade, our group has focused on enabling technologies that would permit a paradigm shift in dialysis care similar to that brought by implantable defibrillators to arrhythmia management. Two significant barriers to wearable or implantable dialysis persist: package size of the dialyzer and water requirements for preparation of dialysate. Decades of independent research into highly efficient membranes and cell-based bioreactors culminated in a team effort to develop an implantable version of the University of Michigan Renal Assist Device. In this review, the rationale for the design of the implantable artificial kidney is described.
