| refusal to treat | Refusal of the health professional to initiate or continue treatment of a patient or group of patients. The refusal can be based on any reason. The concept is differentiated from patient refusal of treatment see treatment refusal which originates with the patient and not the health professional. (12 Dec 1998) |

| atomic heat | The amount of heat required to raise an atom from 0 |
| radiant heat | Heat given off from any body in the form of waves, similar to light waves but of greater wavelength. (05 Mar 2000) |
| molar heat capacity | <chemistry> The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of one mole of a substance by one degree Celsius (or Kelvin). (09 Jan 1998) |
| molecular heat | The product of the specific heat of a body multiplied by its molecular weight. (05 Mar 2000) |
| combined heat and power | An older term for what is now generally called cogeneration. The term is currently used in Europe and other foreign countries. (05 Dec 1998) |
| conductive heat | Heat transmitted by direct contact, as by an electric pad or hot water bottle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| convective heat | Heat conveyed by a warm medium, such as air or water, in motion from its source. (05 Mar 2000) |
| conversive heat | Heat produced in a body by the absorption of waves that are not in themselves hot, such as the sun's rays or infrared radiation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| prickly heat | An eruption of papules and vesicles at the orifices of sweat glands, accompanied by redness and inflammatory reaction of the skin. Synonym: heat rash, lichen infantum, lichen strophulosus, prickly heat, strophulus, summer rash, tropical lichen, lichen tropicus, wildfire rash. (05 Mar 2000) |
| heat | <chemistry> Energy transferred between two objects because of a temperature difference, the thermal motion of atoms and molecules. For chemical systems the sign for heat flow into the system is positive, because this process increases the internal energy of the system. Heat flowing out of the system is defined to be negative, since this process decreases the internal energy of the system. (09 Jan 1998) |
| heat apoplexy | A severe and often fatal illness produced by exposure to excessively high temperatures, especially when accompanied by marked exertion. It can manifest by elevated body temperature, lack of sweating, hot dry skin, and neurologic symptoms; unconsciousness, paralysis, headache, vertigo, confusion. In severe cases very high fever, vascular collapse, and coma develop. Synonym: heat apoplexy, heat hyperpyrexia, malignant hyperpyrexia, thermic fever. (05 Mar 2000) |
| heat capacity | <chemistry> The amount of energy required to raise the temperature of an object by one degree Celsius (or Kelvin), it is represented by the symbol C and is given in units of J/K. (09 Jan 1998) |
