title: [Problems in the emergency transport of the sick and severely injured by air].
abstract: Adequate and effective assistance in cases of serious illness or injury often depends on fast efficient reactions. Efficiency is increased if the time it takes to administer emergency treatment, however superficial, can be reduced and followed by rapid transport to properly equipped medical centres. It is therefore obvious that an airborne ambulance service, especially in certain situations (major disasters, accidents in isolated areas, etc.) is the most effective and at times the only possible solution.
