A Mexican climber collapsed on Mount Everest’s south summit while climbing and needed to be carried down by four sherpas using a stretcher. Global Rescue’s deployed team of medical operations and rescue experts were notified and informed that the member was awake, receiving a high flow of oxygen and was being carried to Mount Everest Camp 2. Unfortunately, he was awake but talking nonsensically and coughing up pink sputum. Global Rescue initiated an immediate medical evacuation by helicopter and successfully transported him from Camp 2 to a hospital where he was evaluated and treated for a lower respiratory tract infection, which negatively affected the airways, before being discharged by treating physicians.
