Master di II livello in Medicina di Spedizione in Montagna

Medicina di Spedizione in Montagna” denominato “International Master Course in Mountain Expedition Medicine” – I edizione

Director: Prof. Lorenzo Dominioni at the Università degli Studi dell’Insubria, Varese, Project Coordinators: Dr. Luigi Festi, Prof. Darryl Macias, Prof.. Hermann Brugger.

The new International Master course in Mountain Expedition Medicine, born with the objective to creating a new type of expedition doctor or paramedic, highly specialized, able to handle any medical emergencies, and also logistics on the field, providing professional support to the work of rescue team, in case of accidents or sudden illnesses.

The aim is to create a health personnel who, knowing management of emergencies in the field, and knowing in depth the technical skills in mountaineering and climbing, places it as a leader and as a second guide in the expeditions.

A specialist who knows how to deal with the expedition guide and participants, assessing correctly their skills and physical fitness, and comparing them to the expedition field. This role was already done in part, by Master in Mountain Medicine, but now we want to create a figure with greater specialization and experience and high academic preparation of theoretical and technical level.
This is achieved by combining the expertise and experience of the previous course of the University of Insubria, the skills of Training Center / Air Zermatt, those of the Austere Course and Mountain Medicine at the University of New Mexico, and those of medical staff and guides in the Denali Park in Alaska.

A course so comprehensive and complex in its development, does not exist at the time in the world. The new Master Course, which takes largely theoretical part of the Master in Mountain Medicine and  Master in Mountain Emergency Medicine, provides trips and practical training on the field among others, in Zermatt at altitude below the Matterhorn, in the Grand Canyon in Arizona and in New Mexico, and in the Denali Park in Alaska, with weekly schedule distributed over two years.

The comparison with mountain guides of great experience and professionalism, with renowned mountaineers, with alpinist doctors as Oswald Oelz or Tom Hornbein, will complete the educational path, after which there will be a similar assessment to the other masters with multiple choice questions, the presentation of a thesis, and an assessment of skills and attitudes in the field, to create a professional profile able to better manage expeditions or groups of climbers all over the world.
