Helicopter and fixed-wing air medical transportation provides an important role in the management of critically-ill patients. As the use of cardiac pacemakers continues to grow, knowledge of their expanding capabilities and sophistication is important. The environments of our "airborne intensive care units" are subject to many sources of electromagnetic and vibrational interference. Although pacemaker shielding mechanisms have become quite elaborate, further studies are needed to define their reliability in modern aircraft. Further, the possible effects of electromagnetic and vibrational interference upon inflight reprogramming require further study.
直升机和固定翼空中医疗运输在危重症患者的管理中发挥着重要作用。随着心脏起搏器的使用持续增加，了解其不断扩展的功能和复杂性非常重要。我们“空中重症监护病房”的环境受到多种电磁和振动干扰源的影响。尽管起搏器的屏蔽机制已经相当精细，但仍需要进一步研究来确定其在现代飞机中的可靠性。此外，电磁和振动干扰对飞行中重新编程的可能影响也需要进一步研究。
