Diaphoresis means sweating, especially sweating that is sudden, heavy, or out of proportion to the situation. In clinical care, the term is commonly used to describe “profuse sweating” noted by a patient or observed on exam. Diaphoresis is not a diagnosis by itself; it is a physical sign and symptom that can point to many different causes. Cardiovascular clinicians pay close attention to Diaphoresis when it occurs with chest discomfort, shortness of breath, fainting, or signs of poor circulation.
