Heat stroke is the most serious type of heat-related diseases, and the induced multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) is an important cause of death for heat stroke patients. The cardiovascular system is one of the important targets of heat injury. Studies have reported that heat stress can lead to myocardial inhibition, abnormal heart conduction and blood flow redistribution, thus changing the hemodynamic state, leading to obvious abnormalities in electrocardiogram, echocardiography, myocardial injury biological markers and hemodynamic indicators of patients with heat stroke. In this article, the pathophysiological and histological changes and clinical manifestations of heatstroke-induced myocardial injury are reviewed, aiming to provide references for further understanding and research of myocardial damage caused by hyperthermia.
