Застосування БПЛА Для Медичної Евакуації Пацієнтів

Abstract

The subject of the research in this article is advanced methods and means of emergency evacuation of the injured from the scene to a medical facility, requiring urgent assistance from professionals. In comparison with the traditional method of patient transport by helicopter, particular attention is given to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), which boast an impressive list of advantages and are specially adapted for such functions. Their technical capabilities and effectiveness in transporting the injured to a medical facility are thoroughly examined, making them an attractive alternative in situations requiring urgent medical assistance. The current dynamic development of technology provides the opportunity for significant expansion of the use of drones in the field of medical aviation transportation, becoming the most relevant direction in medical monitoring. The research aims to justify the broader use of drones in the healthcare system, including monitoring diseases, rescue operations, patient transport, medical equipment, medications, and other equipment. The possibilities of providing quick and effective medical assistance in difficult-to-reach places or emergencies are discussed, where drones can ensure rapid and safe transportation. The objectives of this study include determining the role and advantages of drones in medical evacuation, the structural features of drones in terms of their application in aviation transport for medical purposes, and revealing the potential of unmanned aerial vehicles in ensuring safety and optimizing costs. The scientific and practical novelty of the obtained results lies in the comprehensive advantages of drones in the context of medical evacuation and their technical data and capabilities, with particular attention to the selection of optimal power plant options, which are crucial for providing the necessary power and flight range, especially in medical transport missions. This allows for improving the functionality of drones, enhancing safety, and cost savings in performing medical aviation transportation.
