Heat stroke: high death-coded share in the FDA AER plate
Signature read: Heat stroke's 60.0% death-coded share is among the highest in the openFDA reaction corpus. Report volume is lower-third scale: 30 named reports in the openFDA extract. Death-coded share is upper-third: 18 of 30 reports (60.0% of named reports). Nearest volume peer: Abnormal spermatozoa NOS (±0 reports). Lead species Dog (25). Lead co-reported drug Milbemycin Oxime + Spinosad (5).
Read these counts as reporting volume, not risk: per our methodology, A high death-coded share in FDA filings does not prove causation; co-reporting is voluntary temporal association only. Browse the full reactions index or the about page for how PlainBreed frames FDA CVM extracts.
