Even healthy persons may experience some form of altitude illness when they hike or ski in high mountains. Therefore, it is imperative that those with compromised cardiac or pulmonary function take extra precautions by allowing time for ascent, by recognizing and accepting their limitations, and by descending promptly at the first sign of trouble. Certain medications, such as anticoagulants and strong tranquilizers, are probably best discontinued at higher elevations. In all caes, preventive and treatment measures should be available.
即使是健康的人在高山徒步旅行或滑雪时也可能会经历某种形式的高原病。因此，心脏或肺功能受损的人必须采取额外的预防措施，留出时间逐渐登高，认识并接受自己的身体极限，一旦出现不适迹象就立即下山。某些药物，如抗凝剂和强效镇静剂，在高海拔地区可能最好停用。在所有情况下，都应具备预防和治疗措施。
