A 26-year-old construction worker is brought to the emergency room with a change in mental status after working a 10-hour shift on a hot summer day (average outside temperature was 97°F). The man had been sweating profusely during the day but did not drink fluids. He has a fever of 102°F, heart rate of 140 beats/min, and blood pressure of 100/55 mm Hg in the supine position.
