Both can result in heat exhaustion and heat stroke and have many overlapping symptoms. Patients with heat stroke have hot, dry skin and altered mental status (e.g., C, and heat stroke occurs at a core temperature > 40°C. As you attempt to examine the patient, he has a generalized, tonic-clonic seizure.
