Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The study is a one-time survey. The Lake Louise Score is determined with the help of the questionnaire. In addition, scores for mental illnesses, for example anxiety disorder/depression, are determined by appropriate questionnaires. The aim of the study is to detect a correlation between elevated values in the respective scores.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
As secondary endpoints, one can discuss the validity of the Lake Louise Score through false-positives that are collected. The secondary aim is thus to learn more about the differential diagnostic distinction between a pre-existing (worsening) psychiatric illness and increasing Acute Mountain Sickness.
