AIM: We review the case of a severely injured patient to evaluate the system of
delivering medical staff by helicopter in areas with limited medical resources.
METHODS: The patient's chart was reviewed, summarized, and presented. RESULTS: A
22-year-old woman attempted a suicidal fall after using a knife to stab herself.
She was transported to a local hospital. A radiological study revealed fractures
to the patient's face and the base of her skull, pneumocephalus, traumatic
subarachnoid hemorrhage, stab wounds to the neck and chest, pneumothorax,
unstable pelvic fracture, and right femoral shaft fracture. Her circulation
status became unstable. We sent medical staff members to the local hospital by
doctor helicopter. The patient underwent tracheal intubation and the insertion of
a chest drain, and was evacuated by doctor helicopter. After aggressive intensive
treatments in our hospital, the patient finally obtained social rehabilitation.
CONCLUSION: In an area where medical resources are limited, sending trained
physicians to a referring hospital to appropriately prepare a severely wounded
patient for transportation might be the key for the patient to maximize his or
her chance of survival.
