High Altitude Neurology

High Altitude (HA) attracts a large number of people, including travelers, athletes, and military personnel. However, the HA environment is a serious challenge for these people living at lower altitudes. Especially, neurological dysfunction, including cognitive function decline, equilibrium, and sleep disorders are common symptoms for people entering HA. While it is generally possible for individuals with neurological disturbances to go trekking, it is important to consider several factors before embarking on trekking that involve physical exertion, exposure to various environmental conditions, and potential challenges along the trail. Therefore, it is crucial to assess the specific condition and consult with a healthcare professional who can provide personalized advice based on individual circumstances.
