Cardiac monitoring, defibrillator, pacing
Our aircraft are equipped with Physio Control Lifepak 15 or Zoll series X cardiac monitors, which are equipped with defibrillation capabilities, 12 Lead ECG, external pacing. They have the capacity to monitor blood pressure (invasive and non invasive), SpO2, end tidal CO2, Carbon Monoxide and Methemoglobin, and include a metronome to guide CPR compressions and ventilations.
Full resuscitation capabilities
Along with the medical equipment to aid in cardiac resuscitation, our medical teams are highly trained and skilled to intervene in the event of an on-board medical emergency. All flight crew are ACLS, PALS, NRP certified. In addition, emergency ALS medications are also on board and accompany the medical team and patient during every transfer.
In flight laboratory monitoring
Point of Care laboratory testing is available on board. ISTAT is an advanced, handheld blood analyzer that provides real-time, lab-quality results within minutes to accelerate the patient care decision-making process.Oxygen and ventilator management
All our flights are equipped with medical oxygen from VitalAire, an AirLiquide subsidiary. Patient transport planning includes the calculation of oxygen requirements for the flight including reserve oxygen. We use Hamilton T1 ventilators, internationally recognized as one of the best intensive care transport ventilators. It allows for
- a choice of ventilation modes for invasive and non-invasive ventilation
- • an extensive monitoring of ventilation parameters
- the ability to ventilate both pediatric and adult patients
- automatic compensation of changes in barometric pressures
Multiple medications, IV drips
We have determined a standard list of medications suitable for many patient diagnoses, both in intravenous form and a limited number in pill form. We adjust based on patient diagnosis. Should a patient require specialized medication that is not carried we make the extra effort obtain the medication prior to transport. We carry the following: Intravenous fluids, ACLS drugs, cardiac medications, respiratory inhaled medications, gastro protective medications, antibiotics, sedation, narcotics.Neonatal patient transport
Our neonatal transport team are equipped with the Dräger TI500 Globe-Trotter® Neonatal Transport System, to which our Hamilton T1 ventilator has been integrated should the need for ventilator support be required; as well as internal O2 tank storage. It is the incubator of choice for Canadian hospital neonatal transport teams.
Nutritional support
Once we have completed our preflight medical assessment and determined the nutritional needs of the patient, we will arrange catering. There are some conditions where we deem it would be unsafe to feed the patient during the flight due to a risk of aspiration, we will have the discussion with the patient, if possible, or family and transferring hospital team. Alternate hydration interventions will be made.Cardiac monitoring, defibrillator, pacing
