A member from Switzerland was at Mount Everest Camp 2 (21,000 feet/6,400 meters) when he suffered the onset of High-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE), chest pain, shortness of breath, mild headache and frostbite on his toes and fingers. Global Rescue recognized the severity of the member’s condition and initiated an airborne rescue and transport to a hospital. Following a successful transport, a hospital physician evaluated the member whose vital signs were stable. The member elected to leave the hospital and receive further treatment at his home of residence if needed.
