Those who mentioned overdrinking, or dilution effects, etc, were deemed to have a basic understanding of EAH. Understanding of EAH was deemed “basic” if their answer in free text identified a cause such as drinking too much fluid or signs and symptoms included words associated with malaise, collapse, or death, as per the 2010 study.¹⁴
