本文认为“急性高原反应”一词不妥,易使人将正常的高原低氧适应过程,认为是一种疾病。因此,改称“急性高原病”较好,也便于开展国内外交流。此病的诊断主要应考虑缺氧症状或体征是否影响人体正常生活,有无失能表现进行诊断。为了提高对该病诊断的客观性和可比性,提出了一种简易评分法,建议在科研工作中采用。此法简便、准确、实用,适于大样本采用。 This article argues that “acute altitude sickness” is not the term, easy to make people adapt to the normal plateau hypoxia, that is a disease. Therefore, renamed “acute plateau disease” is better, but also facilitate the exchange of domestic and foreign. The diagnosis of the disease should mainly consider the symptoms or signs of hypoxia affect the normal life of the human body, with or without performance diagnosis. In order to improve the objectivity and comparability of the diagnosis of the disease, a simple scoring method is proposed, which is suggested to be used in scientific research. This method is simple, accurate and practical, suitable for large samples.
