Mountain Medicine Research Group
The Mountain Medicine Research Group is the result of a three-party collaboration between Haukeland University Hospital, The Norwegian Air Ambulance Foundation and The University of Bergen.
About the research group
The term Mountain Medicine describes a discipline of medicine concerning prevention and treatment of medical conditions that may arise in the high mountains. It is characterized by difficult conditions making even the simplest of medical examinations, interventions and treatment potentially very demanding.
Being skilled in Mountain Medicine may be useful for a variety of different medical professions, but will be especially applicable for doctors working outside hospitals, either as GPs in rural areas, anesthesiologists, or doctors travelling with expeditions for example.
Research themes in this context may include hypothermia, frostbite, altitude injury, expeditional medicine, avalanches, anesthesia and analgesia in primitive conditions, toxicology and traumatology.
Vision
The vision of the Mountain Medicine Reseach Group is three-fold.
We aim to:
- Preform research of high quality.
- Be a multidiciplinary national arena for networking, idea- and experience exchange in Mountain Medicine Research.
- Establish cooperations with similar international research groups.
