Across
- 8. Redness, swelling, and tingling of the skin resulting from prolonged exposure to cold for more than 60 minutes.
- 9. Sickness Illness caused by a shortage of oxygen when ascending to high altitudes where barometric pressure is lower.
- 11. Extremely painful muscle cramps, often in the calf or abdomen, caused by muscle overload and fatigue during or after exercise.
- 12. A superficial nonfreezing cold injury where ice crystals form on the skin surface, often affecting the ears, nose, cheeks, and fingers.
- 13. A deficit of body water caused by acute or chronic dehydration.
- 16. A measure of a sunscreen's effectiveness in absorbing UV radiation.
- 19. A condition characterized by abnormally low body temperature
- 20. A hyperextension injury of the great toe that occurs more frequently on synthetic playing surfaces.
- 21. An objective measure used to determine necessary precautions for practice and competition in hot weather by incorporating different temperature measurements.
- 22. Physiological stress resulting from a desynchronization of the body’s internal clock after traveling across multiple time zones.
Down
- 1. A moderate heat illness resulting from dehydration and the inability to sustain adequate cardiac output.
- 2. A condition in which, for one reason or another, the body temperature is elevated.
- 3. A state of excessive total body water content.
- 4. A condition where abnormal hemoglobin molecules deoxygenate and clump together during exercise at high altitudes, potentially leading to a ruptured spleen.
- 5. A factor that accentuates low temperatures through the combination of wind and dampness, increasing the risk of hypothermia.
- 6. A fluid/electrolyte disorder resulting in abnormally low sodium levels in the blood, often caused by over-consuming hypotonic fluids during prolonged exercise.
- 7. A state of optimal total body water content in which the body's systems function most efficiently.
- 10. A life-threatening emergency caused by thermoregulatory failure, characterized by central nervous system dysfunction and a core temperature of 105 F or higher.
- 14. The process of gradually adapting to exercising in hot temperatures, typically occurring over a 7–14 day period.
- 15. A pre-established safety plan for every venue that includes a chain of command and specific criteria for suspending and resuming activity during lightning storms.
- 17. Local cooling of the body that results in tissue damage; it can be superficial or deep.
- 18. Defined as the loss of 2 percent or more of body weight due to fluid loss.
