Xtreme Everest aims to improve outcomes for people who become critically ill. Currently, not only do 20% of people admitted to intensive care in the UK each year die, but a significant number of those that survive never regain the same quality of life they had before. We work with doctors, nurses and members of the public to try to find a way to lower this statistic. Please help us make a difference today.

To date, Xtreme Everest have carried out 12 research studies: 10 at altitude and 2 in chambers and sea level testing prior to the Caudwell Xtreme Everest expedition which took place in 2007.

• Cho Oyu (2005)
  
• Cho Oyu (2006)
  
• Sea-Level Testing (2007)
  
• Caudwell Xtreme Everest (2007)
  
• Smiths Medical Young Everest Study (2007)
  
• Caudwell Xtreme Everest (2009)
