Wilderness medicine is a rapidly evolving field and is of increasing importance as more people engage in hiking, climbing, kayaking, and other potentially hazardous activities in the backcountry.

Vildmarksmedicin är ett brett fält som innefattar expeditionsmedicin, höghöjdsmedicin, extremsport, tropikmedicin, dykmedicin, glesbygdsmedicin, katastrofmedicin och mycket mer. Sammanfattningsvis är det den sjukvård som ges när det är mer än 1h till etablerad sjukvård, vilket innefattar stora delar av världen – och Sverige. Dykmedicin inkluderar tillstånd relaterade till både fridykning och apparatdykning. (sv)

has abstract	Wilderness medicine is a rapidly evolving field and is of increasing importance as more people engage in hiking, climbing, kayaking, and other potentially hazardous activities in the backcountry. The modern definition of wilderness medicine is "medical care delivered in those areas where fixed or transient geographic challenges reduce availability of, or alter requirements for, medical or patient movement resources". A primary focus of the field is the evaluation, prioritization (triage), preliminary treatment of acute injuries or illnesses which occur in those environments and the emergency evacuation of victims. However, back country rescue and wilderness first aid is not the sole activity of wilderness medical professionals, who are also concerned with many additional topics. These include but are not limited to: * Secondary care follow up to first aid in remote settings, such as expeditions * Evaluation of experience and issuance of updated protocols for first response and secondary care * The prevention of wilderness medical emergencies * Epidemiological studies * Public policy advisement to wilderness planning agencies, and issuance of guidelines to disaster planning agencies, professional guides and amateur back country enthusiast organizations (en)
