Abstract

BACKGROUND: Acute mountain sickness (AMS) is a self-limiting illness, involving a complex series of physiological responses to rapid ascent to high altitudes, where the body is exposed to lower oxygen levels (hypoxia) and changes in atmospheric pressure. AMS is the mildest and most common form of altitude sickness; however, without adequate preparation and adherence to ascent guidelines, it can progress to life-threatening conditions.
