Under what condition should a Soldier be evacuated if there’s no improvement in heat exhaustion symptoms?

A Soldier experiencing heat exhaustion requires careful monitoring and a proactive response to ensure their safety and health. If there is no improvement in heat exhaustion symptoms after 30 minutes of implementing initial treatment measures, such as moving the Soldier to a cooler environment, rehydration, and resting, it is imperative to evacuate them. This timeframe allows for appropriate monitoring and intervention while also emphasizing the need to act decisively if the situation does not improve. Delaying evacuation beyond this point could increase the risk of progressing to heat stroke, which is much more serious and can be life-threatening. Therefore, the 30-minute mark is a critical threshold for assessing the need for further medical assistance.
