I was tickled and humbled to be invited as the guest on a recent episode of the Critical Care Scenarios podcast . Catch it here: http://icuscenarios.com/episode-25-wilderness-medicine-with-ross-hofmeyr We talked about high altitude medicine, technical rescue, priorities, decision-making, suspension syndrome, altitude prevention, high altitude ultrasound and more! Great fun with excellent collaborators.

In response to the recent press about the possibility of a cableway being built on Mt Kilimanjaro , I was recently interviewed by Pippa Hudson on CapeTalk/Radio702. Her questions focused on the basics of altitude illness, and some reflection on what the medical risks of a cableway would entail. You can read the MCSA/UIAA statement on the proposed cableway here.
