This textbook represents a definitive effort to codify treatment modalities for mountain medicine that were previously fragmented. It covers a broad range of topics including trauma management, high-altitude pulmonary edema, frostbite, and accidental hypothermia. The content is structured into sections covering epidemiology, pathophysiology, diagnostics, and acute interventions. It also introduces specialized clinical research findings like isolated altitude-induced psychosis and details technical aspects of mountain rescue, including ground-based operations, helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS), and the latest rescue technologies.

Emergency physicians and nurses need to be equipped with the necessary training to be able to manage “on the field” accidents and sicknesses as well as their own physical security.
