Watercraft as Overwater Ambulance Exchange Points to Enhance Air Medical Evacuation
M. Al-Husseini, K.H. Wray, and M.J. KochenderferAir Medical Journal
Abstract:
Ambulance exchange points are preidentified sites where patients are transferred between evacuation platforms while en route to enhanced medical care. We propose a new capability for maritime medical evacuation, which involves co-opting underway watercraft as overwater ambulance exchange points to transfer patients between medical evacuation aircraft....
