Most physicians who practice in Missouri will never treat high-altitude illness, but some of their patients who travel to the mountains will experience it. High-altitude illness can often be prevented if patients are educated and prepared. This review focuses on prevention of high-altitude illness for the average Missouri traveler who plans a trip to a mountain resort.
