The world's highest medical clinic opened on April 1st in Nepal at Mount
Everest Base Camp, the spot where climbers place their support crew and reserve
supplies before setting off on the dangerous journey up the world's highest peak. It
opened as many of those who had conquered the summit-or dared to believe they
might-began to arrive to mark the 50th anniversary of its first ascent.
Located at 5,330 meters above sea level, the tent-based clinic will be run by a
member of the Himalayan Rescue Association (HRA), Dianne Frump, and staffed by
volunteer physicians who will treat visiting hikers , climbers , and Base Camp staff for
ailments such as high altitude sickness, frostbite, and snow blindness .
Frump told reporters that the main mission of the non-profit HRA is to prevent,
reduce, and treat serious altitude sickness in the rugged Himalayan Mountains, which
lie between Nepal and China.
"What upsets us most is that death from altitude sickness is almost always
preventable , so we will strive to offer education as well as medical care to visitors and
to poor local residents ," said Frump.
Frump also said that having a clinic at Base Camp was a good idea as not all
expeditions brought their own physicians. While the leaders of expeditions without
doctor s are quite knowledgeable about the treatment of high-altitude sicknes s, she
said, they often have trouble coping with common ailments like bronchitis and
diarrhea.
"So I thought," said Frump, "Why not set up one clinic that has physicians with
both altitude training and experience with common local problems, and improve care
and reduce expedition costs?"
