Complication Rates in Altitude Restricted Patients Following Aeromedical Evacuation

Abstract: CAR rate was inversely correlated to PFC and PFC-100 rates. This finding suggests that aggressive prescribing of CARs may have a salutary effect on postflight complication rates and bears further investigation.

“…Based on gut, lung, and kidney histopathology at 2 to 30 days following PT, the cause for increased mortality is consistent with multiple organ inflammation and dysfunction. The exacerbation of mortality by exposure to hypobaria is consistent with epidemiological studies indicating that critical care complications during aeromedical evacuation can be reduced by increasing aircraft cabin pressures to the equivalent of approximately 4,000 ft altitude, compared with the commonly employed level of 8,000 ft (33,34). FIG.…”

“…При приземленні літальних суден, прогнозування може сприяти визначенню ризику перевантаження об'ємом та погіршення стану постраждалих із серцевою недостатністю або набряком легень. У постраждалих із черепно-мозковою травмою кров і спинномозкова рідина можуть втягуватися в порожнину черепа, що може спричинити підвищення внутрішньочерепного тиску та погіршити ушкодження головного мозку [3][4][5].…”
