Dies hatte zur Folge, dass die Flugbesatzung aufgrund des noch zur Ver- fügung stehenden Treibstoffes einen Anflug und eine Landung nach low visibility procedures durchführte, obwohl der Betrieb der Piste 16 auf CAT I beschränkt war. Zum Vorfall beigetragen hat der Umstand, dass die Information nicht übermittelt wurde, dass die Piste 14 für Anflüge und Landungen nach CAT III nicht zur Verfügung stand.

In accordance with Annex 13 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation of 7 December 1944 and article 24 of the Federal Air Navigation Law, the sole purpose of the investigation of an aircraft accident or serious incident is to prevent future accidents or serious incidents.

  • Identification of the Technical and Medical Requirements for HEMS
    Kottmann et al. Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine (2018) 26:54 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13049-018-0520-3 ORIGINALRESEARCH Open Access Identification of the technical and medical requirements for HEMS avalanche rescue missions through a 15-year retrospective analysis in a HEMS in Switzerland: a necessary step for quality improvement Alexandre Kottmann1,2* , Pierre-Nicolas Carron1, Lorenz Theiler2,3, Roland Albrecht2, Mario Tissi2 and Mathieu Pasquier1 Abstract Background: Avalanche rescues mostly rely on helicopter emergency medical services (HEMS) and include technical rescue and complex medical situations under difficult conditions. The adequacy of avalanche victim management has been shown to be unexpectedly low, suggesting the need for quality improvement. We analyse the technical rescue and medical competency requirements of HEMS crewmembers for avalanche rescue missions, as well as their clinical exposure. The study aims to identify areas that should be the focus of future quality improvement efforts. Methods: This 15-year retrospective study of avalanche rescue by the Swiss HEMS Rega includes all missions where at least one patient had been caught by an avalanche, found within 24 h of the alarm being raised, and transported. Results: Our analyses included 422 missions (596 patients). Crews were frequently confronted with technical rescue aspects, including winching (29%) and patient location and extrication (48%), as well as multiple casualty accidents (32%). Forty-seven percent of the patients suffered potential or overt vital threat; 29% were in cardiac arrest. The on-site medical management of the victims required a large array of basic and advanced medical skills. Clinical exposure was low, as 56% of the physicians were involved in only one avalanche rescue mission over the study period.

  • Transport of COVID-19 and Other Highly Contagious Patients By
    Albrecht et al. Scandinavian Journal of Trauma, Resuscitation and Emergency Medicine (2020) 28:40 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13049-020-00734-9 REVIEW Open Access Transport of COVID-19 and other highly contagious patients by helicopter and fixed-wing air ambulance: a narrative review and experience of the Swiss air rescue Rega Roland Albrecht1,2*, Jürgen Knapp3, Lorenz Theiler2,3, Marcus Eder2 and Urs Pietsch1 Abstract Background: The current COVID-19 pandemic highlights the challenges air ambulance services are facing when transporting highly infectious patients for several hours in enclosed spaces. This overview provides an example of a standard operating procedure (SOP) for infection prevention measures in HEMS missions during the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, we describe different methods used by several organizations in Europe and the experience of the Swiss air rescue organization Rega in transporting these patients. Possible benefits of the use of small patient isolation units (PIU) are discussed, including the fact that accompanying medical personnel do not need to wear personal protective equipment (PPE) during the transport but can still maintain full access to the patient. Rega has developed and patented its own PIU. This device allows spontaneously breathing or mechanically ventilated patients to be transported in pressurized jet cabins, small helicopters and ambulance vehicles, without the need to change between transport units. This PIU is unique, as it remains air-tight even when there is a sudden loss of cabin pressure. Conclusion: A wide variety of means are being used for the aeromedical transport of infectious patients. These involve isolating either the patient or the medical crew.
