Аннотация
INTRODUCTION: Flights to high altitude can lead to exposure and unique pathology not seen in normal commercial aviation.
METHODS: This paper assesses the potential for point-of-care ultrasound to aid in management and disposition of injured crewmembers from a high altitude incident. This was accomplished through a systematic literature review regarding current diagnostic and therapeutic uses of ultrasound for injuries expected in high altitude free fall and parachuting.
RESULTS: While current research supports its utility in diagnostics, therapeutic procedures, and triage decisions, little research has been done regarding its utility in high altitude specific pathology, but its potential has been demonstrated.
DISCUSSION: An algorithm was created for use in high altitude missions, in the event of an emergency descent and traumatic landing for an unconscious and hypotensive pilot, to rule out most life threatening causes. Each endpoint includes disposition, allowing concise decision-making.Galdamez LA, Clark JB, Antonsen EL. Point-of-care ultrasound utility and potential for high altitude crew recovery missions.
