Heat stress significantly increases the risk of acute kidney injury (AKI) among agricultural workers, emphasizing the need for better health measures.
Up to 43% incidence of AKI was found following a single work shift under heat stress conditions, indicating serious health risks.
Data were collected from 14 studies focusing on occupational heat stress and kidney health among U.S. agricultural workers.
Promising interventions include cooling bandanas and electrolyte solutions, which may mitigate heat stress effects on kidney outcomes.
