概要	抄録 Aims: The crew members of an endurance motor sports rally team developed acute high-altitude illness (AHAI) during the first year of a route that included driving at high altitude for three days. Therefore, a health care manager (HCM) was assigned to the team to help prevent AHAI during the second and third years. We evaluated the effect of the HCM on the prevalence of AHAI. Methods: The numbers of individuals who presented at the official medical tent of the rally were recorded. Reports from another team without an HCM served as the control. Results: The rates of visits were essentially the same between the two teams (5 [20.8%] of 24 vs. 3 [20.0%] of 15) respectively during 2016. These values were reduced in the team with the HCM during 2017 and 2018, but did not change in the control team (1 [4%] of 25 and 0 [0%] of 25, respectively vs. 3 [18.8%] of 16; P = 0.0128 Fisher exact test). Conclusions: An HCM with knowledge of AHAI was effective in preventing the development of AHAI among endurance rally crews.
