    Journal: J Fam Pract; 1993 Mar; 36(3):313-8. PubMed ID: 8454979.
    Abstract:
    Emergency air medical transport has become an integral part of the practice of medicine. In 1990, there were more than 170 air medical programs in operation in the United States. The proper and safe use of air medical transport requires a basic understanding of the medical implications of flight and the capabilities and constraints involved in transporting patients by air. The purpose of this paper is to review this information and provide guidelines for the use of air medical transport.
