Case Study: Heat Exhaustion in a Phoenix AC Installer
A Phoenix AC installer working in 110°+ temperatures became severely dehydrated, experiencing cramps, vomiting, headache, and dizziness. YA Medical arrived and assessed his vitals, hydration level, and symptoms.
He received IV fluids with electrolytes and medication for nausea and cramping. Within 40 minutes, his condition improved dramatically—his headache resolved, color returned, and he could stand and walk comfortably. He returned to work the next day feeling nearly back to normal.
How Quickly Do Patients Feel Relief?
Most patients begin feeling better within 1 hour of receiving IV hydration, but results do vary by patient.
Migraine IVs: Relief in 30-60 minutes
Hydration for illness/heat: Relief in 30–60 minutes
Wellness IVs: Full effect within 12–24 hours
Because fluids enter the bloodstream directly, recovery is much faster than drinking water.
