Conclusion

What should foreigners pay attention to as for the prevention of heatstroke?

1. About temperature, humidity, perspiratory gland

　Points that foreigners should be careful about heatstroke are different from regionan.

1) Climate
　　Europeans：Hotness and Humidity
　　North and South America：Hotness
　　South Africa・Australia：Hotness
　　Area of deserts：Humidity
2) Perspiratory gland
　　Those who live in subarctic zones have the fewest perspiratory gland. 　　　⚠︎the amount of perspiratory gland is decided by the weather that you experienced for a long time in your childhood.

2. About consciousness of foreigners

　　According to the result of our questionnaires, foreigners do not know about Japan’s climate well, we have to tell more meteorological information useful to prevent heatstroke. More important is how different the climate between Japan and their own countries is. They also need to know which part of Japan’s climate they have to pay attention to. It will contribute to the reduction of the number of foreign heatstroke patients.

　 　Unfortunately, we cannot confirm the validity of our conclusions. Although the data of the number of people by EMS because of heatstroke is issued by Fire and Disaster Management Agency, there is no information of nationalities included in the data.
