Altitude Sickness Every year, people die of altitude sickness. All of these deaths are preventable. If you are traveling above 2500m (8000ft), read this information and tell your companions about it - it could save your life. What is altitude sickness? Altitude sickness has three forms. Mild altitude sickness is called acute mountain sickness (AMS) and is quite similar to a hangover - it causes headache, nausea, and fatigue. This is very common: some people are only slightly affected, others feel awful. However, if you have AMS, you should take this as a warning sign that you are at risk of the serious forms of altitude sickness: HAPE and HACE*. Both HAPE and HACE can be fatal within hours. HAPE HAPE is excess fluid on the lungs, and causes breathlessness. It is never normal to feel breathless when you are resting - even on the summit of Everest. This should be taken as a sign that you have HAPE and may die soon. HAPE can also cause a fever (a high temperature) and co

Natural high for Kenya's runners - Sport - Al Jazeera English All athletes seek a competitive advantage through training on high altitude areas such as Iten, Kenya. Although the benefits of some interventions in this training conditions are clear, most strategies are less well proven. Altitude is no exception to this. Training at high altitude has been used by competitive athletes as a means of improving their potential. However, despite a good deal of research into the topic, its true effects and a recommended approach are still not well established. Additionally, altitude training is usually expensive and fraught with logistical problems. Benefits of Altitude Exposure Exposure to high altitude could theoretically improve an athlete’s capacity to exercise. Exposing the body to high altitude causes it to acclimatise to the lower level of oxygen available in the atmosphere. Many of the changes that occur with acclimatisation improve the delivery of oxygen to the

Heatstroke is the most severe of heat-related problems, after heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Heatstroke often results from exercise or heavy work in hot environments combined with inadequate fluid intake. Young children, older adults, people who are obese and people born with an impaired ability to sweat are at high risk of heatstroke. Other risk factors include dehydration, alcohol use, cardiovascular disease and certain medications. What makes heatstroke severe and potentially life-threatening is that the body's normal mechanisms for dealing with heat stress, such as sweating and temperature control, become inadequate. The main sign of heatstroke is a markedly elevated body temperature — generally greater than 104 F (40 C) — with changes in mental status ranging from personality changes to confusion and coma. Skin may be hot and dry — although if heatstroke is caused by exertion, the skin may be moist. Other signs and symptoms may include: Rapid hear
