Abstract

Fifteen sick neonates were transported to higher-level neonatal intensive care units (NICUs) using specially equipped aircraft with trained medical teams. The median (Q1, Q3) one-way distance traveled (km) was 710 (689, 1224.5), and the median (Q1, Q3) transit time and airborne time were 6 (5.5, 7) and 1.25 (1.22, 2.15) hours, respectively. Thirteen neonates needed mechanical ventilation and five needed inotrope support during transit. The median (Q1, Q3) NICU stay was 20 (13.5, 35) days. Twelve neonates (80%) were discharged, two (13.3%) left against medical advice, and one died. Air ambulance is a feasible, effective, and safe mode of transportation of critically ill neonates in India.

摘要

15名患病新生儿乘坐配备特殊设备的飞机，并由训练有素的医疗团队护送，转运至更高层级的新生儿重症监护病房（NICU）。转运的单程距离（千米）中位数（四分位数间距）为710（689，1224.5），转运时间和空中飞行时间中位数（四分位数间距）分别为6（5.5，7）小时和1.25（1.22，2.15）小时。13名新生儿在转运过程中需要机械通气，5名需要使用血管活性药物支持。入住NICU的时间中位数（四分位数间距）为20（13.5，35）天。12名新生儿（80%）出院，2名（13.3%）自动出院，1名死亡。在印度，空中救护是危重新生儿可行、有效且安全的转运方式。
