he field of mountain medicine in Italy, as well as elsewhere, is still little recognized and given little consideration, even less than emergency mountain medicine. T is situation prevails at a time when winter and summer tourism has tended to rediscover the mountains both because of climate change in recent years as well as the trend for extreme sports, for adventure and to experience the wilderness. It is thus of fundamental importance to emphasize the safety factor in the prevention and treatment of accidents during mountaineering activities. Accidents which occur in the mountains, many of which are fatal, are given wide media coverage and involve not only amateur mountain climbers but also experts and professionals. Amongst the increasing numbers of people who are drawn to the mountains there are some who despite suffering from chronic cardiac or respiratory pathologies, nonetheless push themselves to reach higher altitudes in the search for uncontaminated areas. e doctor who is part of the expedition or who works in a mountain environment, without considering those who are involved in rescue operations, must therefore be adequately trained to deal with these occurrences. 27 th January 2012 Opening Ceremony e week lessons are fixed as follows: 06/10 february 2012 26/28 march 2012 23/27 april 2012 21/24 may 2012 24/27 september 2012 22/25 october 2012 Practice tests fixed as follows: 23 th february 2012 21/22/23 march 2012 End of may/first of june 2012 2/3 july 2012 lessons, unless specified, will be held in the meeting room of the Department of Surgical Sciences of University of Insubria, low ground of new Ospedale di Circolo
