N2  - Altitude illness is a group of synergistic physiologic disturbances, each of which may occur alone but which more commonly occur together, with one dominating the clinical picture. Treated promptly, altitude illness is readily reversible with full recovery; procrastination may lead to death or disability. Descent should be the first thought in treatment and should not be delayed.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
