What is the primary concern when treating a client with heat stroke?

A. Administering antibiotics: Antibiotics are not used unless infection is suspected. Heat stroke is not an infectious condition. B. Monitoring blood glucose levels: While monitoring glucose may be part of general care, it is not the priority in heat stroke. C. Providing hydration through oral fluids: Oral fluids are contraindicated in unconscious or altered patients, which is often the case in heat stroke. IV fluids are preferred. D. Rapid cooling of the body: The primary concern in heat stroke is core temperature reduction to prevent organ damage. Ice packs, cooling blankets, and cold IV fluids are used.
