On the plateau of Tibet's unique environment, high altitude, strong sunlight, and hypoxia, cold, and so on, will have a certain impact on the body, travel to Tibet before certain to go to hospitals for medical check-ups, while affirming their own heart and other major organs will rise to the premise , to depart. These contained the medical needs of some conventional indicators, such as blood, electrocardiogram, chest X-ray, liver and kidney ultrasound examination, blood biochemistry checks. Screening for the purpose of inspection is the most easily found, the most basic physical problems. Lhasa, Tibet Autonomous Region of the oxygen content is only half the plains, where other high-altitude oxygen content is lower. This ordinary people are already on the verge of compensation for people who have heart disease is even more dangerous.
Besides, the thought to Tibet, but also a number of special examinations. This special examinations for the hypoxic response test, there are only mildly abnormal wellness checks only when the screening. On the basis of recommendations of lung function in patients with poor response to its acceptance test hypoxia (oxygen concentration of 15% of the gas mixture of oxygen and nitrogen stimulation test), should also be considered necessary in the chest CT and cardiac ultrasound.
If sea level resting PaO2> 70mmHg or pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2)> 95%, suggesting that the subjects may be relatively safe at an altitude of about 2,400 meters in travel. If the response to hypoxia test PaO2> 50-55mmHg or SpO2 ≥ 85% of the subjects could be considered by hypoxia reaction test, but only suggesting that the subjects may be relatively safe at an altitude of about 2,400 meters travel. If below the standards proposal to abolish the use of supplementary oxygen or tourism, and other safety measures. Some people might be worried about the safety of such inspection, and that inspection under hypoxia in the event of the problem how do? In fact, not fear, because there are always professional doctors in monitoring indicators of changes in the situation and subjects.
Heart, lung, brain, liver, kidney obvious lesions, and severe anemia or hypertension patients, not to blindly into the plateau. With more organ organic diseases, severe anemia or severe hypertension tourists on the highland environment and limited capacity for adaptation, they entered the plateau in the early stages of acute mountain sickness was higher than that of the danger of other people; if stay on the plateau long time, other people are more susceptible to chronic altitude sickness. At the same time due to the body to adapt to the highland environment, liver, lung, heart, kidney and other important organ of metabolic activity strengthened, so that the burden of these organs. Once these organs appeared disorder, the condition will be further aggravated.
If you have never had the altitude, then recommend that you enter plateau, a rigorous medical examination.
