Where is travel medicine failing? Insights from high altitude trekking
Journal Contribution ResearchOnline@JCUBauer, Irmgard
Abstract
[Extract] Before setting off on a holiday, particularly of the adventurous kind, it is vital to obtain appropriate medical advice to ensure a safe trip. However there are concerns that this need is not being adequately met. In this comment, Irmgard Bauer from James Cook University, Australia, discusses where travel medicine is failing and what can be done about it, in the context of her recent observations of travellers engaged in high altitude trekking.
