Medical Pirates: High Altitude Medical Explorers
The Medical Pitares are a group of young doctors and researchers specialized in emergency and mountain medicine, united by their passion for exploration in extreme environments. Emergency doctors, residents and mountain rescue technicians who bring science to the highest peaks in the world.
Their mission is to study high-altitude pathologies, particularly mountain sickness and its serious complications, such as cerebral and pulmonary edema.
They have set up high-altitude laboratories on Mont Blanc and Aconcagua, testing new protocols with CPAP masks and expiratory resistance devices, which rapidly improve oxygen saturation and alleviate symptoms.
Their research, presented at international conferences and in publication, represents a step forward for safety in the mountains. The expedition on Aconcagua ended with a donation of emergency medicines to the local community.
