Introduction
There is a world of difference between providing rst aid to someone
on the ground and trying to manage a medical situation at 30,000 feet.
Thats why this book has been written. It represents a major milestone
by putting medical management information and instruction into the
context and environment of where you workonboard an aircraft.
Managing medical situations in such a remote environment can be
quite challenging considering the amount of time before any medical
help can be obtained, the resources that are available to you, and the
altitude-related issues that affect the victim. But you will quickly see
that the information that follows will help you carry out your responsi-
bilities with a high degree of condence and peace of mind. It reects
the most current thinking in emergency medical care, taking into
account the preceding issues as well as the policies and protocols
unique to your job. In addition, it meets all regulatory requirements.
The authors who have contributed to this book know what you are
up against. They are aviation physiology professionals, physicians, and
nurseswith many years of experience personally managing in-ight
medical emergencies. In fact, through the MedLink
Emergency Tele-
medicine Center at MedAire, the real-life experiences that help make up
this book cover many thousands of medical incidents, all managed
through to their nal outcome.
A medical event does not discriminate as to whether a person is at
home, at the ofce, in the car, or onboard an aircraft. It will happen.
And when it happens to someone onboard your ight, thanks to your
time and commitment to this training, that person may be one of the
most fortunate people in the world.

Physiology
Changes in atmospheric pressure
and oxygen levels during air travel
cause certain physical effects. This
section describes the atmosphere,
gas composition, and the physical
gas laws. The subsequent pages
show the effects of ying and pres-
sure changes on the human body.
It also addresses particular disorders
that can result from pressure
changes and provides suggestions
for the relief of these problems.

The Atmosphere
The earth is wrapped in a blanket of gases known as the atmosphere, which extends to
an altitude of over 400 miles (645 km) above the earths surface. The atmosphere pro-
tects the earth from ultraviolet radiation and extremes of temperature and is held in
place by the earths gravitational pull.
The atmosphere is divided
into a number of layers. Air-
craft normally cruise in the
lower two layers: the tropo-
sphere and the stratosphere.
The troposphere extends
from the earths surface (sea
level) to approximately 50,000
feet (15,000 m) at the equator

Subsonic jets cruise near the

Supersonic jets fly up
to 60,000 ft (18,000 m)
and becomes thinner at the
poles. This layer of the atmo-
sphere contains water vapor,
which forms clouds, and
becomes pro gressively colder
as altitude increases. The
stratosphere extends approxi-
mately 50,000 feet (15,000 m)
to 50 miles (80 km). This layer
contains no water vapor or air
currents, and the temperature
is fairly constant. The bound-
ary layer between the tropo-
sphere and the stratosphere is
called the tropopause. The
thickness of the tropopause
varies according to latitude
and season.

There are two factors present
in the atmosphere that crew
may be concerned about:
ozone and cosmic radiation.
Ozone
Ozone is an unstable gas
formed when ultraviolet light
from the sun interacts with
oxygen molecules in the
atmosphere.
Exposure to higher-than-
normal concentrations of
ozone can irritate the lungs,
eyes, and other tissues.
However, ozone reaches poten-
tially harmful levels only at an
altitude of 40,000 to 140,000
feet (12,00042,600 m).
Although it seldom causes
of cosmic radiation that
reaches the earths surface;
radiation levels are higher at
the North and South Poles,
where the magnetic eld is
weaker.
Exposure to excessive radia-
tion can increase the risk of
some cancers, so protection is
recommended. Exposure is
measured in millisieverts
(mSv). Maximum occupational
exposure is 20 mSv per year;
for pregnant women, exposure
should be kept to a minimum.
Studies of aircraft radiation
levels show that the annual
exposure rate is about 2 mSv
for short-haul crew and 4 mSv
for long-haul crew.
problems in ight, some ozone
is present in the air used for
cabin air-conditioning. Most of
the ozone is removed by the
aircrafts ozone converters, or
by heat from the aircrafts
compressors, before the air
enters the cabin.
Cosmic Radiation
Cosmic radiation is radiation
originating mainly from outer
space, with a smaller compo-
nent coming from the sun.
Some radiation is absorbed in
the atmosphere, so levels are
greater at higher altitudes,
where the atmosphere is
thinner. The earths magnetic
eld also affects the amount
OZONE AND COSMIC RADIATION IN THE ATMOSPHERE
The atmosphere is made up of a mixture of
gases, mainly nitrogen (78%) and oxygen (21%).
The weight of all the gas molecules in the air
creates atmospheric (barometric) pressure,
which is measured as millimeters of mercury
(mmHg). The atmospheric pressure is greatest
at the earths surface (at sea level) and gradu-
ally diminishes as altitude increases.

Effect of Altitude on Atmospheric Pressure
Atmospheric (barometric) pressure falls as altitude
increases. At sea level, the pressure is 760 mmHg. At
18,000 feet (5,500 m), atmospheric pressure is
reduced by half, and at 33,700 feet (10,270 m), it is
reduced by three-quarters.
Composition of Air
Air consists almost entirely of nitrogen and oxygen.
Other atmospheric gases, such as carbon dioxide,
make up a relatively small percentage of the total.

The behavior of gases, such as those that make up the atmosphere, is described in a series of laws.
Their effects on the body in ight are outlined on the following pages.
Physical Gas Laws
Boyles Law
Boyles law states
that as long as
temperature
remains con-
stant, the volume
of a gas is
inversely propor-
tional to its pres-
sure. As altitude
increases, atmo-
spheric pressure falls and the same amount of gas
occupies a larger space. Therefore, during ight, any
pocket of gas within the body will expand as alti-
tude increases.

Daltons Law
Daltons law states that the total pressure of any gas
mixture, such as the atmosphere, is equal to the sum
of its partial pressure, that is, the pressure of each
of the individual gases within the mixture. Although
the proportion of each gas remains the same regard-
less of altitude, the expansion of gases that occurs
as altitude increases reduces the amount of each
gas present.

Nitrogen Oxygen Nitrogen Oxygen
Grahams Law
Grahams law states when gases are dissolved in
liquids, the relative rate of diffusion of the gas is pro-
portional to its solubility in the liquid and inversely
proportional to the square root of the molecular
mass. This is the law of simple diffusion. Gases will
diffuse from a higher concentration to lower concen-
tration. This explains why oxygen and carbon dioxide
readily exchange during the process of respiration.
Carbon dioxide is 22 times more soluable than oxygen.
Henrys Law
Henrys law states that at equilibrium, the amount of
gas dissolved in a liquid is proportional to the pressure
of gas on that liquid. When altitude increases, the
atmospheric pressure falls. During ight, the pressur-
ization in the cabin maintains an atmospheric pressure
that is compatible with life (5,0008,000 feet). If there
is a sudden fall in pressure (cabin decompression), the
dissolved gas (nitrogen) in body tissues is released in
the body, which releases gas bubbles into the blood,
joints, etc. This is also known as decompression sick-
ness. An example of this gas law occurs when a cork is
popped off of a carbonated liquid, resulting in the
release of gas bubbles in the liquid.
Charles Law
Charles law states that the volume of a xed mass of
gas held at a constant pressure varies directly with
absolute temperature. That is, the volume of a gas is
directly proportional to temperature. If the tempera-
ture increases, gas volume expands; if the temperature
decreases, gas volume decreases. This directly applies
to an oxygen tank. As the ambient temperature rises,
the volume of oxygen in the tank expands. Likewise, if
the oxygen tank is cold, the volume decreases.

Most modern aircraft cruise at an altitude of
30,000 to 40,000 feet (about 9,00012,000 m). At
these high altitudes, the atmospheric pressure is
low, resulting in the expansion of the atmo-
spheric gases. This results in fewer available
oxygen molecules per volume of air than at sea
level. A lack of oxygen is called hypoxia.
Humans cannot survive at these altitudes unless
the supply of oxygen is increased. Oxygen
levels on an aircraft can be raised by either
increasing the atmospheric pressure inside the
cabin or administering supplemental oxygen.
Cabin Atmospheric Pressure
In theory, the aircraft cabin could be pressurized
to an atmospheric pressure equivalent to that at
sea level. At high altitudes, however, the atmo-
spheric pressure is so low that the aircraft fuse-
lage would have to be extremely strong and
heavy to withstand the difference in pressure
between the inside and outside of the aircraft.
Passenger aircraft cabins are usually pressurized
to an atmosphere of 5,000 to 8,000 feet (1,500
2,400 m) above sea level when ying at cruising
altitude. In these conditions, the oxygen pres-
sure is about 15% to 20% lower than at sea
level, which may cause hypoxia in some people.
The atmospheric pressure inside the cabin is
regulated by the aircrafts environmental control
system, which also controls the ozone levels and
the recirculation of the cabin air.
Cabin Pressurization
Cabin air comes from several sources. During
ight, air from the aircrafts engines (known as
bleed air) may be mixed with recycled air;
when the aircraft is on the ground, air for the
cabin environment may be provided by the air-
crafts auxiliary power unit or supplied by a
ground compressor unit.
When the aircraft is in ight, bleed air from
the engines passes through cooling packs and
is mixed with recycled air from the cabin. The
air ows along supply ducts and enters the
cabin through vents in the ceiling, which are
angled to ensure that the air is distributed
throughout the cabin. From there, the air passes
into the lower sections of the aircraft through
vents in the oor. Cabin airow varies among
different types of aircraft.
The cabin pressure is controlled automati-
cally to maintain a safe and com fortable level
for the occupants. As the aircraft climbs or
descends, the atmospheric pressure in the cabin
changes more gradually than the pressure
outside the aircraft. Pressurization is primarily
regulated by outow valves, which control the
rate at which air leaves the cabin. The system
also includes pressure relief valves, which
release excess pressure if the outow valves
become stuck in the closed position.
Cabin Air-Conditioning
The cabin air-conditioning system, which con-
trols airow through the cabin, has to meet
certain regulatory standards. It must maintain an
adequate supply of oxygen, remove carbon
dioxide, and remove contaminants and odors.
Some aircraft are tted with ozone converters,
which remove ozone from the bleed air.
The air-conditioning system regulates the
temperature in the aircraft cabin by adding hot
bleed air from the engines to the cold air that
comes from the cooling packs. The overall
cabin temperature is set on the ight deck and
controlled by the ight crew; in large aircraft,
the crew can adjust the temperature in different
sections of the cabin.
Recycling of Air
On many aircraft, up to 50% of the cabin air is
recycled. The air normally passes through high-
efciency particulate lters (HEPA lters), which
remove possible contaminants, such as bacteria
and viruses, before mixing with engine bleed
air from the cooling packs.
The use of recycled air improves comfort for
the people on board the aircraft by increasing
humidity levels. This is accomplished by retain-
ing air that contains moisture from the breath-
ing of crew/passengers. It also reduces ozone
levels, which can be irritating. In addition, recy-
cled cabin air helps lower nancial and envi-
ronmental costs by reducing the aircrafts fuel
consumption.
Atmosphere in Flight
Cabin Altitude
Although aircraft usually cruise at an altitude of
30,000 to 40,000 feet (9,00012,000 m), the pres-
sure in the cabin, sometimes called cabin altitude,
is maintained at a level equivalent to 5,000 to 8,000
feet (1,5002,400 m).

Effects of Flying on the Body
During ight, the body is subjected to a number of environmental stressors, primarily
related to changes in pressure and lower-than-normal oxygen levels. Cabin pressuriza-
tion minimizes some of these effects, but other stressors related to ying still have an
impact on the human body. The effects may vary for each individual.
The human body functions
most efciently at sea level. At
higher altitudes, such as those
encountered when ying, the
body has to cope with a
number of external changes.
The most signicant changes
are a reduced oxygen level,
which can result in hypoxia, as
well as changes in atmospheric
(barometric) pressure. Aircraft
cabins are pressurized to
create an articial altitude to
reduce the effects of hypoxia
and pressure changes on the
body. However, factors such as
low humidity, temperature
changes, noise, and vibration
can also have an adverse effect
on the body. Changes in gravi-
tational (G) forces are gener-
ally not important on civil
aircraft, but pilots of high-
performance aircraft are
exposed to high G forces,
which may lead to impairment
of the circulation and even loss
of consciousness.
Reduced Oxygen Levels
During ight, the cabin pres-
surization is equivalent to an
altitude of 5,000 to 8,000 feet
(1,5002,400 m), which results
in reduced oxygen levels.
Cabin pressurization helps
restore oxygen to near-normal
levels. However, people with
chronic heart or lung disease
may still be at risk for lower-
than-normal oxygen levels
(hypoxia) in normal cabin
conditions and may need
additional oxygen in ight.
Atmospheric Pressure
Changes
Rapid changes in pressure
during ascent and descent can
affect parts of the body where
turning, climbing, or descend-
ing. These aircraft maneuvers
may lead to a mismatch in
the signals from the eyes and
the balance organs in the ears,
which may result in motion
sickness.
The susceptibility to motion
sickness varies from person to
person. Most people nd that
the sensation decreases if they
y frequently. Because of vari-
ations in the way each aircraft
moves, some people may
experience motion sickness on
one type of aircraft but not on
another.
The likelihood of motion
sickness is increased by low-
frequency vibration in the air-
craft, which occurs during
turbulence. Alcohol, medica-
tions, and illnesses such as
upper respiratory tract infec-
tions may affect the middle ear
and cause motion sickness.
People who suffer from
motion sickness may feel
worse in a warm or poorly
ventilated cabin.
Inactivity
During periods of inactivity,
blood tends to pool in the legs
and feet, causing the ankles
and feet to swell; this problem
is common in passengers on
long-haul ights. Inactivity
also increases the risk of
blood clots forming in the
veins of the legs, a disorder
called deep vein thrombosis
(DVT). Performing lower body
exercises in the seat and
walking around the aircraft
cabin whenever possible can
help minimize swelling of the
ankles and feet and lessen the
risk of developing DVT.
Factors That Affect the Body
gases are trapped and cannot
escape naturally. For example,
if the eustachian tubes in the
ears or the sinuses are blocked
because of a cold or sinusitis,
air may be trapped in these
areas. Altitude and pressure
changes can cause severe
headache, earache, or facial
discomfort.
Low Humidity
Reduced moisture and humid-
ity in the cabin air can make
the skin, lips, nose, and mouth
feel dry. Skin moisturizers can
help relieve dry skin. Drinking
plenty of uids, such as water
and juices, can prevent dehy-
dration and help relieve
dryness of the mucous mem-
branes. Caffeinated drinks
(e.g., soda, coffee, tea) and
alcohol can increase the likeli-
hood of dehydration and
should be avoided.
Temperature Changes
Extremes of heat and cold can
increase the bodys demand
for oxygen and thereby
decrease the individuals toler-
ance to low oxygen levels.
Noise and Vibration
Long-term exposure to noise
can cause progressive hearing
loss. Hearing protection is an
important consideration for
preventing hearing loss.
Low-frequency vibration
occurs in aircraft during turbu-
lence and can cause motion
sickness; it may contribute to
fatigue.
Aircraft Motion
Flight operations expose the
body to a range of forces,
especially when the aircraft is

Effects of Low Oxygen Levels
Oxygen is essential for life. All cells need a constant supply of oxygen to carry out their
normal function. Oxygen from inhaled air passes through the walls of the air sacs
located in the lungs (alveoli) into the blood. From there it goes to the heart and is
pumped into the aorta and the arteries, which then carry the oxygen to all body cells.
Lack of oxygen (hypoxia) has life-threatening consequences.
The pressure of oxygen in the
atmosphere allows oxygen to
move from the lungs into the
blood. When altitude
increases, atmospheric pres-
sure decreases and the oxygen
pressure is reduced, resulting
in less oxygen entering the
body. This is called hypoxia.
When hypoxia is caused by
reduced oxygen pressure,
the condition is known as
hypoxic hypoxia.
Oxygen is carried in the
blood by hemoglobin (which
causes the color in red blood
cells). As blood passes
through the lungs, almost all
of the hemoglobin becomes
saturated with oxygen. In
healthy people, it remains
almost fully saturated until the
oxygen pressure has fallen
substantially. However, if the
pressure falls too low, hemo-
globin cannot become satu-
rated and the blood no longer
carries enough oxygen to the
body tissues.
The Bodys Response
to Hypoxia
If oxygen levels fall, the body
tries to compensate by making
changes in the respiratory
system and the cardiovascular
system.
As a person ascends to
higher altitudes, the respira-
tory system increases the rate
and depth of breathing to
increase oxygen intake. The
heart rate increases with
altitude once a person ascends
above 6,000 to 8,000 feet
(approximately 1,8002,500 m).
tude increases, until the victim
rapidly becomes unconscious.
The severity of hypoxia,
how fast it develops, and the
order in which symptoms
appear vary among individu-
als. The onset and severity of
hypoxia are inuenced by the
starting altitude, the rate of
ascent, the nal altitude, and
underlying illnesses. In addi-
tion, any factors that increase
the bodys oxygen require-
ments (e.g., physical exertion)
as well as factors that prevent
the body from taking in
enough oxygen (e.g.,
smoking) reduce the individu-
als tolerance to hypoxia.
Hypoxia
At 15,000 feet (4,500 m), the
heart rate is about 10% to 15%
higher than it would be at sea
level; at 20,000 feet (6,000 m),
the rate is 20% to 25% higher;
and at 25,000 feet (7,600 m),
the rate is doubled. In addi-
tion, changes occur in the
blood vessels so that more of
the blood supply is sent to the
vital organs, such as the heart
and brain.
Signs of Hypoxia
At low altitudes, one of the
rst signs of hypoxia may be
reduced night vision, which
can occur as low as 5,000 feet
(1,500 m). Signs of hypoxia
progressively worsen as alti-

Hypoxia occurs either when
body cells do not receive
enough oxygen or when they
cannot use oxygen effectively.
There are four main types
of hypoxia.
Hypoxic hypoxiareduc-
tion in oxygen pressure
(high altitude)
Hypemic hypoxiainabil-
ity of the red blood cells to
carry enough oxygen to the
tissues (anemia)
Stagnant hypoxiadimin-
ished blood ow resulting
in insufcient blood supply
to the body tissues (shock)
Histotoxic hypoxia
toxins that impair the ability
of body cells to use oxygen
(e.g., medications, alcohol)
During ight, the most
common cause of hypoxia is
reduced oxygen pressure in the
aircraft cabin. Individuals vary
in their response to the lower
oxygen levels; some people
develop hypoxia at certain alti-
tudes while others are relatively
These conditions can increase
the risk of hypoxia for several
different reasons.
Lung diseases, such as
severe asthma, pneumonia,
and chronic lung disease,
prevent sufcient oxygen
from entering the blood. Dis-
orders that affect the hemo-
globin (the oxygen-carrying
pigment in red blood cells)
prevent the blood from taking
up enough oxygen and
reduce the amount of hemo-
globin available to carry
oxygen. The most common of
these conditions is anemia or
severe bleeding. Circulatory
problems, such as heart
failure, can prevent sufcient
oxygen from reaching body
cells. Severe infections caused
by organisms that produce
toxins can impair the ability of
body cells to use oxygen.
Finally, certain medications
can also reduce oxygen utili-
zation in the body.
Factors That Affect the Bodys Response
to Low Oxygen Levels (Hypoxia)
unaffected at the same altitude.
Several factors increase a per-
sons risk of developing
hypoxia; these factors fall into
three main groups.
Smoking
Tobacco smoke produces
carbon monoxide gas, which
binds much more readily to
hemoglobin than oxygen.
When carbon monoxide is
inhaled, it can block the
uptake of oxygen in the lungs.
As a result, less oxygen can be
carried in the blood.
Alcohol Consumption
Alcohol is a cellular toxin.
There is some evidence that
it may increase a persons
susceptibility to hypoxia by
impairing the ability of the
bodys cells to utilize
available oxygen.
Medical Conditions
Many medical conditions can
impair the bodys ability to
take in and utilize oxygen.
For ights above 10,000 feet
(approximately 3,000 m),
oxygen levels in the aircraft
must be articially maintained
to prevent hypoxia. The
oxygen levels are normally
regulated through cabin pres-
surization. In addition, supple-
mental oxygen may be
required for people with
medical conditions such as
lung or circulatory problems
that affect their bodys intake
of oxygen. In the event of a
sudden decompression, oxygen
is required for emergency use
by all passengers and crew.
The oxygen may be carried
as a gas contained in pressur-
ized cylinders, as a liquid, or
as chemical generators, which
release oxygen in a continu-
ous ow after a reaction has
been triggered. Portable
oxygen concentrators (POCs)
Preventing and Treating Hypoxia
draw in ambient air and
extract nitrogen to provide a
pure form of oxygen for the
passenger. Several of these
units have been approved by
the Federal Aviation Adminis-
tration (FAA) and are used by
some passengers who require
extra oxygen in ight.
Supplemental Oxygen
A variety of personal oxygen
systems are found on aircraft.
Examples include the POCs
and oxygen equipment used
in medical emergencies, xed
installations with masks on the
ight deck, and the drop-
down emergency systems for
passenger use in the event of
a cabin decompression. In-line
therapeutic oxygen is also
available in many aircraft for
use in medical emergencies.
Drop-down Masks
In the event of sudden decompres-
sion, drop-down masks provide all
passengers with supplemental
oxygen. The masks are attached
by tubing to an oxygen supply
overhead.

Effects of Pressure Changes
During ight, changes in atmospheric pressure due to ascent or descent cause gas in
the body cavities to expand or contract. If gas movement can occur freely, this change
in gas volume does not create problems. However, trapped gas in various parts of the
body can cause discomfort or injury to sensitive tissues.
The ear is particularly vulnera-
ble to the effects of pressure
changes. These changes affect
the middle ear, which lies
behind the eardrum and is a
small, air-lled cavity within the
skull. It is connected to the
back of the throat by a narrow
tube called the eustachian tube.
Normally, part of the eusta-
chian tube is attened, like a
deated bicycle tire. As the
aircraft ascends, the air in the
middle ear expands. The
expanded gas can usually pass
freely down the eustachian
tube without causing discom-
fort, and the pressure in the
middle ear stays the same as
that in the outer ear.

INNER EAR MIDDLE EAR
EXTERNAL EAR
Anatomy of the Ear
The eardrum is a thin, exible membrane that separates the middle ear and outer ear.
The eustachian tube connects the middle ear with the back of the throat.
As the aircraft descends, air
is drawn down the eustachian
tube to equalize the pressure
between the outer ear and the
middle ear. The attened part
of the eustachian tube may
obstruct the ow of air, result-
ing in a higher pressure in the
outer ear than in the middle
ear. The eardrum is then
pushed inward, causing a
feeling of pressure or discom-
fort in the ear.
Conditions Causing
Blockage
The eustachian tubes may
become partially blocked in
any condition that leads to
inammation or swelling in
the ears or the sinuses. Colds,
sinus conditions, and seasonal
allergies can increase the pro-
duction of mucus, which can
contribute to sinus congestion.
Obstruction of one or both
eustachian tubes seldom
causes problems during
ascent. However, if the ears
cannot be cleared as the air-
craft descends, the increased
pressure may damage the
eardrum. Severe pain and
rupture of the eardrum may
occur. For these reasons, it is
advisable not to y with a cold
or sinus condition.

The sinuses are air-lled cavities in the facial
bones, connected to the nasal cavity by narrow
passages. They share the same tissue as the
nasal cavity, so they are also affected by condi-
tions that cause swelling and increased mucus
production (such as a respiratory infection).
Normally, air passes freely in and out of the
sinuses. However, if the connecting passages
are blocked, pressure changes can produce
severe pain. Blockage of the maxillary sinuses
causes pain in the cheekbones and upper teeth;
blockage of the other sinuses leads to pain
under the eyebrows and in the corners of the
eyes. Nasal decongestant sprays temporarily
reduce swelling and open the passages.
Caution: Use of these may be restricted by
the FAA and may cause dependency.
Pressure Changes in the Sinuses
Adults and children can
usually open the eustachian
tubes by yawning or swallow-
ing. These actions allow air to
pass into the middle ear,
equalizing the pressure on the
two sides of the eardrum. If
yawning or swallowing does
not unblock the ears, the Val-
salva maneuver can be used.
This maneuver involves
attempting to blow out gently
while pinching the nose and
keeping the mouth closed. Air
is then forced up the eusta-
chian tube from the back of
the throat. Caution: It is
important that this maneuver
be done very gently. Avoid
forceful exhalation against a
pinched nose.
Babies should be offered a
feeding or given a pacier to
suck during the aircrafts
descent to encourage them to
swallow.
CLEARING THE EARS
Valsalva Maneuver
In this technique, a person
pinches his or her nose and
blows out gently to clear the
ears. The maneuver can be
helpful for young children, who
cannot yawn at will.
Location of Sinuses
The sinuses are cavities in the facial bones. They lie on
both sides of the nose and just above the eyebrows.

Effects of Pressure Changes
on the Eardrum

outward during assent and inward
during descent. If the eustachian tube

equalize the pressure.

Equilibration of air pressure inside the lungs is not
usually a problem during ight. This is because, under
normal circumstances, there is free passage of air along
the airways, and lung tissue can stretch as air expands.
However, there are certain situations in which damage
to the lungs may occur.

tissue (bullae)

Trapped Air in the Lungs
Chest Cavity
The lungs occupy the chest cavity and are pro-
tected by the ribs. Air is rarely trapped in normal
lung tissue because this tissue is fairly elastic
and can accommodate air expansion.

Intestines
The stomach and intestines contain swal-
lowed air as well as gases produced by
bacteria in the large intestine. The amount
of gases may be increased by consuming
gas-forming food and drinks, such as
beans or carbonated drinks, or as a result
of intestinal infections. In normal ight,
the gases can readily expand and be
released by passing gas. Occasionally,
expansion of the gases on ascent may
cause some discomfort. A rapid reduction
in pressure, such as in a cabin decompres-
sion, may produce severe discomfort.
Trapped Air in the Gastrointestinal Tract
Intestines
The small and large intestines occupy the
lower part of the abdomen. Gas expansion
inside the intestines can produce gas and
occasionally cause abdominal discomfort.

The air we breathe contains
78% nitrogen gas. Some of the
nitrogen is dissolved in body
uids and tissues. Normally,
as altitude increases, the nitro-
gen is released and expelled
through the lungs. However,
if sudden decompression
occurs at a high altitude, the
nitrogen gas is rapidly
released and can form bubbles
in the blood or the body
tissues. This process results in
a condition called decompres-
sion sickness (DCS).
In healthy people, DCS
does not usually develop at
altitudes below 25,000 feet
(7,600 m). However, DCS may
develop at normal cabin pres-
sure and can occur in people
who have been in conditions

these cases, more nitrogen gas

Allow at least 24 hours
before ying if there were
several dives in one day or
over a number of days, or
if there was a dive that
required a decompression
stop.
Allow at least 12 hours
before ying for a single
dive that did not require a
decompression stop.
ADVICE FOR SCUBA DIVERS
It is recommended that scuba divers allow as much time as possi-
ble at sea level before ying so that excess nitrogen can be cleared
from body tissues. This will reduce the risk of DCS. The current
recommendation regarding ying after scuba diving is as follows.
In certain situations, the cabin
pressurization may fail. This
failure may occur slowly (e.g.,
failure of the pressure control
system or leaks around door
seals), or it may occur rapidly if
there is a structural failure (e.g.,
loss of a door or window).
Slow decompression is
dened as a loss of cabin pres-
surization that takes longer
than 10 seconds. It is usually
detected by indicators on the
ight deck and/or by automatic
deployment of the passenger
drop-down mask system. The
crew and passengers may grad-
ually develop symptoms of
hypoxia, such as shortness of
breath, and other symptoms
due to gas expansion.
Rapid decompression is
dened as a total loss of cabin
pressurization within 1 to
10 seconds. In explosive
decompression, cabin pressure
is lost within 1 second.

denly, there is only a short

time during which a person
can remain sufciently alert to
respond, even though he or
she may not yet have become
unconscious. This period is
called the time of useful con-
sciousness. In rapid decom-
pression this period may be
very short. This time is deter-
mined by the initial and nal
cabin altitude, as well as the
speed of decompression.

Travel Preparation
Travel planning includes four important steps:
Pre-travel planning
Preparation of in-country resources
Prevention of illness and injury
Post-travel health monitoring
It is very important to become
informed and educated on
travel health issues prior to a
trip. Know before you go is
key to avoiding infections,
accidents, and injuries. Health
risks vary all over the world as
a result of various factors,
such as different seasons, alti-
tude, and changes in public
health measures against infec-
tious diseases. The type of
travel and itineraries to be
pursued also inuence associ-
ated risks. Travelers should
know how to access current
information on travel health
issues. Preparation for travel is
very important for aviation
crews who are constantly in a
state of pre-travel planning
and post-travel. Crews must
be continually vigilant regard-
ing vaccine updates and
health monitoring.
Prepare the following docu-
ments/items for travel and
take the following information
with you:
Current medical history,
allergies, and medications
(Keep in a wallet card.)
Names, phone numbers,
and fax numbers of your
personal physicians
Names and phone numbers
of emergency contacts
Personal prescriptions in the
original bottles with your
name on them (Take
enough medication for
your trip. Carry in your
hand luggage.)
Copy of your eyeglass pre-
scription and spare glasses
or contacts
and access to funds are not
frozen.

Aircraft Disinsection
A number of countries require incoming aircraft to be sprayed with insecticide to ensure
that disease-carrying insects, such as mosquitoes, are not brought into those countries.
This procedure is known as disinsection. The cabin crew may need to spray insecticide
inside the aircraft cabin, while the ground crew treat other parts of the aircraft.
The term aircraft disinsection
is used by the WHO to refer to
a procedure that is designed to
rid the cabin of any disease-
carrying insects, such as mos-
quitoes, that may be in the
aircraft after the cabin doors
have been closed. There are
two different types of disinsec-
tion currently in use:
The residual methodinter-
nal surfaces, including food
preparation areas, seats, and
tray tables are all treated
prior to passenger loading.
Spraying before and during
ight using aerosols
single-shot cans, which
contain the appropriate
amount of insecticide to
treat the entire aircraft, are
used. The ight deck, holds,
and wheel wells are treated
before departure by the
ground staff.
The procedures for disinsec-
tion vary with each airline and
destination country. A basic
description of disinsection is
provided in the highlighted
box; for details, refer to your
company policy.

After the cabin doors are
shut, an announcement is
made before disinsection
begins. Passengers who have
respiratory disorders, aller-
gies, or chemical sensitivities
and pregnant women may
wish to cover their mouths
and noses during disinsec-
tion. Parents of infants and
small children may wish to
cover the childrens mouths
and noses.
2
Spraying is carried out
between push-back and
take-off, with the overhead
bins closed. (Note that
different protocols are used
depending on the destination
country and company policy.)
3
The entire cabin is
sprayed at a rate of no
more than one seat row per
second. The galleys and the
toilets are also sprayed. The
cans should be held above
shoulder height and the
spray aimed above the heads
of the passengers.
4
Once the disinsection pro-
cedure has been com-
pleted, the empty cans are
kept for inspection at the port
of arrival if requested by Port
Health Authority. The cans
have serial numbers, which
are recorded.
HOW TO PERFORM A DISINSECTION
PROCEDURE
Strict protocols have been
developed to ensure that dis-
insection procedures comply
with the local legislation at the
aircrafts destination. Port
Health Authority inspectors
can board any aircraft arriving
from countries where insect-
craft can be impounded until
the correct treatment is com-
pleted. Spraying of aircraft is
mandatory in countries requir-
ing it. In the United States,
however, disinsection must be
carried out in the air rather
than on U.S. soil.
Checks by Port Health Authority Inspectors
borne diseases are prevalent.
In many countries, checks are
made by Port Health Authority
inspectors who travel incog-
nito. The inspectors assess the
disinsection procedure to
decide whether or not it is
adequate. If it is not, the air-

Alertness Management
Duty times demand continuous alertness from members of the crew. However, ight
schedules and the effects of long-haul ights can result in fatigue, which may be com-
pounded by disruption to the internal body clock (see Circadian Rhythm and Jet Lag).
This section addresses the causes and prevention of fatigue.
When people are suffering from fatigue, their
ability to carry out tasks is impaired. During
ight operations, reduced alertness or perfor-
mance from fatigue can reduce the efciency of
the crew and may even pose a safety risk.
This problem usually results from lack of
sleep or disruption of normal sleep patterns.
However, many other factors can also contrib-
ute to fatigue. Illness (either physical or psycho-
logical), stress, side effects of medication
(including over-the-counter drugs), alcohol,
noise and/or vibration, discomfort because of
temperature extremes, and insufcient oxygen
(hypoxia) may all increase the level of fatigue
or impair concentration. In addition, the feeling
of fatigue may be exacerbated by boredom
resulting from poor motivation or an unstimu-
lating environment.
There are many signs and symptoms of
fatigue, such as discomfort after exercise,
difculty in concentrating, or difculty
staying awake.
Fatigue
The following guidelines are
intended for use before and
during a trip to improve sleep
and reduce the risk of fatigue.
They focus on the physiology of
sleep and are aimed at reducing
the adverse effects of fatigue,
sleep loss, and disturbance to
the internal body clock or circa-
dian rhythms. General advice is
given here, but it should be tai-
lored to the specic needs of
each individual. Combining dif-
ferent prevention strategies is
usually best.
Sleep Scheduling before
and during Trips
Before starting a trip, try to
get a good nights sleep at
home.
On a trip, try to get as
much sleep in every
24 hours as you would
during a normal 24-hour
period at home.
Further Tips
There are some further practi-
cal measures that crew
members can take to help
prevent or reduce fatigue
during periods of duty.
Avoid alcoholic drinks and
drinks containing caffeine.
Avoid temperature
extremes.
Avoid boredom; stay active
and task-oriented.
Engage in physical exercise
(but not just before sleep).
Plan sleep or a nap for
times when you are natu-
rally sleepy.
Do not use any medications
(including herbal or other
alternative medications)
that may cause drowsiness
or impair performance.
Avoid heavy meals prior to
periods of duty or prior to
going to sleep.
Sleep if you feel tired and
circumstances permit.
Napping
Naps can be an important
part of managing your sleep
cycle.
A nap can improve your
subsequent alertness and
performance.
A nap will decrease the side
effects of continuous
wakefulness.
If you want to take a nap
just before a duty period or
an appointment, limit the
nap to no more than 45
minutes.
At other times, naps can be
longer. A nap of 2 hours or
more will allow at least one
full cycle of deep and
dreaming sleep.
Even a small amount of
sleep is better than none.

Effects on Performance
Fatigue can adversely affect physical and mental
performance in several ways.
Reaction times are much slower.
Loss of situational awareness results in an
excessive focus on specic tasks.
Judgment may be impaired and decision
making may be more difcult or slow.
Attention is more likely to be easily
disrupted.
Flight and Fatigue
Flight duties can affect sleep and circadian
factors in three main ways.
Changing duty times or shifts can disrupt
regular sleep routines.
On long-haul ights, passing through several
time zones may lead to prolonged periods of
continuous wakefulness (see Jet Lag).
If the physiological timing for sleep does not
coincide with the scheduled sleep opportu-
nity, a cumulative sleep decit can result.
The body has a natural 24-
hour (circadian) rhythm that
affects many of its functions.
The internal body mechanisms
that control circadian rhythm
are complex and are inu-
enced by a number of external
factors.
Exposure to daylight has an
important role in synchroniz-
ing the circadian rhythm with
local time. In general, expo-
sure to bright light during the
morning advances the circa-
dian clock, while exposure to
light during the evening delays
it. Other factors that also play
a part include work/rest
schedules and regular social
interaction.
3 pm to 5 pm. These times
can be used for sleep or naps
(see previous discussion).
Crossing Time Zones
On transmeridian ights (those
in which several time zones
are crossed), the circadian
clock becomes out of step
with local time. This affects
not only sleep patterns but
also body functions such as
digestion. Once in a new time
zone, the body begins to
adjust, but different functions
tend to adjust at different
paces, so they may become
out of sync with one another.
Circadian Rhythm
For long-haul aircraft crews,
the major factor that causes
disruption of circadian rhythm
is passing through several time
zones during ights.
Patterns of Sleepiness
Circadian rhythms determine
patterns of sleepiness as well
as inuence internal processes
such as the regulation of body
temperature and digestion. In
a normal 24-hour cycle, there
are two periods during which
the brain triggers sleepiness.
One is the time from 3 am to
5 am, which is a low point for
body temperature, perfor-
mance, and alertness. The
other, for most people, is

Like food and water, sleep is a
physiological need that is
essential to human survival.
Although it is widely believed
that sleep is a time when the
brain and body shut off,
sleeping is in fact a highly
complex process.
Normal Sleep Cycles
There are two distinct types of
sleep: rapid eye movement
(REM) sleep and non-REM
(NREM) sleep. REM sleep is
associated with dreaming,
during which the brain is
extremely active, with bursts
of rapid eye movements.
NREM sleep is a period in
which physiological and
mental activities slow down.
This form of sleep is divided
into four stages. In stages
1 and 2, sleep is very light and
people are easily awakened.
The deepest sleep occurs in
stages 3 and 4 of NREM sleep.
If people are awakened during
this time, sleep inertia may
occur, which is a continued
feeling of grogginess and dis-
orientation that may last for
10 to 15 minutes.
Over the course of a typical
nights sleep, NREM and REM
during sleep. Several glasses of
wine or beer can largely elimi-
nate the REM sleep in the rst
half of the sleep period.
Developing Good
Sleep Habits
Sleeping well when you
are not on duty is often a
matter of maintaining sensible
habits and creating a restful
environment.
Develop and use a regular
pre-sleep routine and stick
to it whenever possible.
Make sure that your
bedroom is as comfortable
as possible. Use eye shades
if you cannot make your
room dark enough and ear-
plugs if it is too noisy.
Maintain regular sleep
habits.
Do not go to bed hungry,
but do not eat or drink
heavily before going to bed.
Do not have any drinks
containing alcohol or caf-
feine just before bedtime.
If you are unable to get
to sleep within 15 to
30 minutes of going to bed,
get up and do something
else for a while.
Sleep Physiology
sleep occur in cycles of about
90 minutes. Most deep sleep
occurs in the rst third of the
nighttime sleep.
Changing Sleep Patterns
with Age
With increasing age, sleep
becomes lighter and more
easily disrupted. Older people
tend to have increased periods
of wakefulness, and their total
amount of nighttime sleep
decreases. As a result, previ-
ous strategies for achieving
sufcient sleep may no longer

Cumulative Sleep Decit
Sleep loss can be additive and
will result in a cumulative
sleep decit. This loss of sleep
will increase the likelihood of
adverse effects resulting from
fatigue.
The Effect of Alcohol
Although alcohol is often used
to promote relaxation and help
people fall asleep, it actually
has major disruptive effects on
the sleep cycle. Alcohol
reduces the length of REM
sleep and affects certain physi-
ological processes that occur

The term jet lag describes the symptoms that
develop after trips in which the traveler passes
through several time zones over a short period
of time. During such trips, the circadian
rhythms are disrupted, causing jet lag.
For most people, traveling west toward the
sun allows for an easier transition between time
zones. Eastward travel is more difcult, and a
longer time is needed to adjust. In general, the

Victim
Assessment
When caring for a victim who is ill
or injured, it is helpful to have a
clear plan of action. This chapter
includes a general overview of how
to manage a medical incident and
the specic roles that each crew
member or passenger may assume.
A complete guide to the medical
assessment of a victim, including
the primary and secondary survey,
history, physical exam, and vital
sign monitoring, is included.

Managing a Medical Incident
Managing a medical incident can be very stressful if the rescuers are unprepared. This
section provides a Medical Action Plan with specic roles for the rescuers. This plan is
intended as a guide and provides a role for three rescuers; however, it may need to be
revised for your specic crew conguration and company policy.
In-ight medical situations are
best managed by the crew as
a team. The following plan is
an example of the roles and
duties that may be assumed by
three rescuers. The plan out-
lines three roles: the First
Rescuer, who assesses and
cares for the victim; the
Second Rescuer, who assists
the First Rescuer and obtains
any necessary medical equip-
ment; and the Third Rescuer,
who liaises with the ight
crew. The number of rescuers
will vary widely depending on
the type of aircraft, the size,
and the location of the emer-
gency; if fewer than three res-
cuers are available, the
responsibilities may need to
be combined to ensure that all
the tasks in the Medical Action
Plan are addressed.

providing rst aid and care
for the victim.
Third Rescuer
This person is the third
rescuer on the scene of the
incident. The Third Rescuer
performs the following tasks:
Communicates with the
ight crew or with MedLink.
Requests additional medical
assistance on board the air-
craft if needed and available.
Documents the care that has
been provided by the First
and Second Rescuers.
Supports and communicates
with any family members
or traveling companions of
the victim.

During any medical situation, it is helpful to follow an organized response plan, which will help
ensure that the incident is managed effectively. This section provides guidelines on gathering infor-
mation about the victim and his or her illness or injury, performing a primary and secondary survey,
and seeking medical advice.
Procedures for an Incident in Flight
In order to effectively manage a medical inci-
dent, it is helpful to use crew or, if necessary,
passengers to assist you. The following diagram
outlines the Medical Action Plan, which uses
three rescuers. The First Rescuer should stay
with the victim and perform an assessment of
the victim and begin care. The Second Rescuer
should obtain the necessary equipment, and the
Third Rescuer should document the care and
keep the ight crew informed.

Scene Safety
Check for scene safety. Ensure there are no
hazards to yourself or the victim. Hazards in the
hangar include live electrical wires, obstacles,
heavy equipment, water/oil spills, and so on.
In-ight hazards include turbulence, improperly
stowed luggage, or broken glass. If there is any
danger, attempt to make the scene safe before
approaching the victim. Prepare personal pro-
tection equipment.
Response
If the victim is not obvi-
ously conscious, shake
both shoulders gently and
ask, Are you OK?
Observe the victim for
any response to your
voice or touch.
Request for Help
If you are alone, seek help
from other crew members
or passengers. The Second Rescuer should obtain the
necessary equipment. The Third Rescuer should
inform the ight crew of the medical incident.
Airway
Open the victims airway
using the head tilt/chin
lift maneuver. Tilt the
victims head by placing
one hand on the forehead
and tilting his or her chin
with two ngers of the
other hand.
Breathing
Check for signs of breath-
ing (chest movement or
sounds of breathing) for
no more than 10 seconds.
If there are no signs of
breathing, give two
breaths. (ERC guidelines
are to omit initial
breaths and proceed
to compressions.)
Circulation
If the victim is not respon-
sive and not breathing
normally, begin CPR at a
rate of 100 times/minute
(30 compressions and
2 breaths). Apply the AED
if available.
Surveying a Victim
Performing a primary and secondary survey will help rescuers determine what problem
is affecting the victim and allow them to initiate emergency care. The primary survey
helps identify potentially life-threatening conditions, such as a lack of breathing, which
necessitates cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), or severe bleeding. The secondary
survey is used to obtain a history of the current problem or injury and identify other
injuries or medical conditions.
The primary survey is used to help rescuers identify life-threatening conditions in which a victim
may be unconscious and in need of resuscitation. The First Rescuer should stay with the victim and
perform the primary survey. If the victim is conscious and stable, the First Rescuer should proceed
quickly through the primary survey and go to the secondary survey (see next pages).
The primary survey consists of the following parts: scene safety, response, request for help,
airway, breathing, circulation, and debrillation. A quick assessment to look for severe bleeding is
also done at this time.
Conducting a Primary Survey
Move a victim only if necessary to provide
care or to remove the victim from danger.
If you suspect any neck or back injuries,
avoid moving the victim if possible.
An unconscious victim who is breathing
normally should be placed in the recovery
position. If the victim is not breathing
normally, put in a suitable position
for resuscitation.

If the victim is responsive and
breathing adequately, the First
Rescuer will proceed to the
secondary survey to identify
any other conditions that may
need to be addressed. This
survey must include a check
for severe bleeding, because
this problem can lead to a life-
threatening condition called
hypovolemic shock.
While the First Rescuer is
performing the secondary
survey, the Third Rescuer
should record the ndings of
the survey. This will provide a
record of the medical incident
and will help the ight crew
communicate with MedLink.
Signs and Symptoms
All injuries and illnesses have
particular signs and symptoms
that are helpful in determining
incident and about underlying
conditions that the victim may
have. Listed in the following
panel are the ve main ques-
tions to ask when obtaining a
history: what, when, where,
why, and how.

the possible cause of the
problem. These include signs
(what you can see or
measure) and symptoms (what
the victim feels). To identify
specic signs or symptoms,
obtain a history of the incident
from the victim or any travel-
ing companions and then
examine the victim.
History of the Incident
The history is the information
that a victim can provide
about what happened and any
current medical problems.
This information is usually the
most important factor in iden-
tifying medical conditions, the
causes, and possible action. If
the victim is unable to answer
your questions, ask traveling
companions or witnesses for
information about the medical

The measurement of vital signs is very important in the assessment and monitoring of a victim.
Vital signs include temperature, blood pressure, pulse, and respiration. Record this information
so that you can keep a record of the vital signs. This information will be very helpful to the
MedLink physician.
head for 30 seconds to obtain
a reading. If using a digital
thermometer, place the end
under the victims tongue for
an oral temperature (normal
reading 98.6F [37C]). To
obtain an axillary temperature,
place the thermometer under
the armpit (axilla) for 30 to
60 seconds to obtain a
reading. Note that an axillary
(under the arm) temperature
will be 1F (17.22C) lower
than an oral reading. If you
use a rectal thermometer for
children, the reading will be
Measuring Vital Signs
Respiratory Rate
The normal respiratory rate in
adults is about 12 to 16 breaths
per minute; in babies and
young children, the normal
rate is fasterabout 20 to 30
breaths per minute. An unusu-
ally rapid respiratory rate may
indicate a breathing problem or
an underlying medical problem.
Watch the victims breath-
ing; place your hand on the
chest of a child to feel the
breathing if necessary. Count
the number of breaths in one
full minute to check whether
the breathing seems abnor-
mally fast or slow. One respi-
ration consists of one
inhalation (chest rises) and
one exhalation (chest falls). If
possible, count the respira-
tions when the victim is not
aware you are counting;
awareness of being watched
could alter the victims breath-
ing rate and depth. Note
whether the victim is having
difculty breathing, and listen
to the breathing to detect
coughing, wheezing, or any
other sounds. Normal breath-
ing is effortless, automatic,
and regular (even) in rhythm,
and it does not produce noise
or discomfort.
Temperature
The normal body temperature
is usually 98.6F (37C) when
taken orally (by mouth), but
this will normally vary slightly
among individuals. An abnor-
mally high temperature may
be due to an illness such as an
infectious disease; an unusu-
ally low temperature may indi-
cate a serious condition such
as hypothermia. There are
several ways to check the vic-
tims body temperature. If
using a forehead thermometer,
press it on the victims fore-
1F (17.22C) higher than an
oral reading. These are the
normal temperatures at the
three sites used for
temperature measurement.
As the heart pumps blood through the body,
a pulse can be felt in some of the blood
vessels (arteries) close to the skins surface.
Use your index and middle ngertips to feel
for the victims pulse on the inside (at the
bend) of the wrist (radial artery) just below the
thumb. To obtain a pulse on a baby, feel the
inside of the upper arm and nd the brachial
artery. Gently press down and count the
number of beats in a minute. The pulse should
be strong and regular.
Pulse
The pulse of a healthy person at rest is strong
and regular. In adults, the normal pulse rate is
about 72 beats per minute but can vary from
60 to 80 beats per minute; babies and young chil-
dren have faster heart
rates. If the strength,
rhythm, or rate of the
pulse is abnormal,
this may indicate a
medical problem.

Blood Pressure
The blood pressure is a measurement of the amount of pressure applied to the walls of the arter-
ies as the heart pumps blood through the body. Blood pressure is continually changing depending
on activity, temperature, diet, emotional state, posture, physical state, and medication use. Blood
pressure readings are measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) and usually recorded as two
numbers, such as 110/70 mmHg:
Systolic pressurethe top numberis the measure of the maximum pressure in the artery
when the heart contracts and is pumping blood through the body.
Diastolic pressurethe bottom numberrepresents the pressure in the arteries when the heart
is at rest.
Normal blood pressure for an adult is 120/70 mmHg. It is important to ask the victim what his or
her normal blood pressure is because it can vary widely among individuals. A blood pressure
reading can be taken in two ways; by auscultation using a blood pressure cuff and stethoscope or
by palpation using the pulse.
Measuring Vital Signs, continued
Measuring Blood Pressure by Auscultation
1. Position is important when taking a blood
pressure reading. If possible, the victim
should sit with the back supported and the
elbow about the height of the heart with the
arm supported. Wrap the blood pressure cuff
around the upper arm with the cuffs lower
edge about 1 inch (2 cm) above the bend of
the elbow. Line up the arrow indicating the
artery with the inside of the elbow.
2. Place the earpieces of the stethoscope in
your ears and place the stethoscope bell over
the brachial artery, which is found in the
inside of the extended elbow. It should not
rub the cuff or any clothing because these
noises may block the sounds of the pulse.
3. Tighten the screw at the side of the rub-
ber bulb by turning counterclockwise and
squeeze the bulb rapidly. Inate the cuff
until the blood ow through the brachial
artery stops, usually no more than 180 to
200 mmHg.
4. Slowly deate the cuff by loosening the
valve in the bulb slightly. This will lessen the
air pressure gradually. Listen with a stetho-
scope until you begin to hear the heartbeat,
Blood Pressure by Palpation Method
It is often difcult to adequately hear a blood
pressure in the aircraft. In those instances, you
may measure the systolic blood pressure by
feeling for a pulse inside the elbow (antecubital
space) or the wrist (radial pulse) while you are
slowly releasing the cuff. The moment you
begin to feel the pulse is the systolic pressure
and is recorded as 120/Pwhere P stands for
palpation. The blood pressure by palpation
will be approximately the same systolic number
or slightly lower than by the auscultation
method. You will not get a diastolic pressure
measurement using this technique.
which will sound like a thump, thump.
Continue deating the cuff and listening until
you can no longer hear the heartbeat. When
the cuff decompresses to the point that
blood ows freely in the artery, the thump
is no longer heard in the stethoscope.
5. The systolic number is recorded when you
rst hear the heartbeat, a steady thump.
6. The diastolic number is the point when you
no longer hear the heartbeat or at the point
at which it becomes mufed.

To assess for normal circulation in an injured
limb or for shock check capillary rell. This
term refers to evaluating the normal blood ow
to body tissues by compressing the nail of one
of the ngers or toes and evaluating the length
of time it takes to return to a pink color.
1
Compress the nail of a nger or toe until it
blanches and turns pale (make sure there is
no polish on the nail).
2
Release the compression and watch for the
normal pink color to return.
3
The nail should return to a pink color in less
than 2 secondsnearly as soon as you let go.
If the color is slow to return or stays white/pale,
this is a good indicator that the circulation to
that limb is not normal or the person may be in
shock.
CAPILLARY REFILL CHECK
Measuring Vital Signs, continued
In some cases, you may need to look for clues on or around the victim that can suggest the cause
of a medical incident. External clues may be especially helpful if a victim is unconscious or unable
to answer your questions. Look for any medications and medical warning alerts that indicate that
the victim has a medical condition such as diabetes or epilepsy. Look for additional clues, includ-
ing the following:
Medications
Inhalers
Needles or syringes
Objects that may have caused the injury
Medications
People on regular medications are likely to carry it with
them. In most cases, they will have bottles of their oral
medications. Diabetics or victims with severe allergies
may carry medications and syringes for injection of
medications such as insulin or the epinephrine auto-
injector. In addition, people with asthma may carry
an inhaler.
Look for External Clues
Medical Warning Alerts
People who have particular medical conditions, such
as diabetes, epilepsy, or severe allergies, may wear a
bracelet/pendant or carry a wallet card to alert others
of their condition.

A thorough examination of the victim is an
important part of the secondary survey. Check
the victim systematically, from head to toe, to
identify any specic signs or symptoms. Look
and listen for abnormalities. You may not need
to touch the victim during the examination if he
or she cooperates and follows your directions.
Ask if he or she is in pain or has felt any
unusual sensations, such as a bone breaking or
palpitations (an abnormally fast or erratic heart-
beat). Remember: Look, listen, and feel for any-
thing that seems abnormal.
Look
Is there any obvious sign of severe bleeding,
deformity, or burns?
Does the victim appear to be distressed,
anxious, or in pain?
Is the victim having difcultly breathing?
Are there any other visible signs of injury or
difculty in using an arm or leg? Compare
one side of the body to the other, such as
both arms. Is there any deformity or differ-
ence noted?
Are there any visible signs of illness, includ-
ing abnormalities in appearance, such as pale
skin, rash, bodily discharge, bleeding, or a
change in behavior?
Listen
Is the victim wheezing or coughing? Is there
difculty breathing?
Is the victims speech clear? Is he or she
unable to speak or having difculty nding
the right words to say?
Can you hear any unusual sounds, such as
sucking or cracking sounds from a chest
wound?
Examining a Victim
Feel
In a conscious, cooperative victim, an examina-
tion can usually be completed without the
rescuer having to touch the victim (the No
Touch Method).
Ask the victim to take a deep breath. Is
breathing difcult or painful?
Ask the victim to move each part of the
body. Can he or she move the area normally?
Does it hurt? NOTE: Advise the victim not
to move any painful or deformed areas.
Does the victim feel pain, numbness, or tin-
gling in any part of the body? If so, ask the
victim to point to the affected area.
Does the victim feel unusually hot or cold?
If the victim cannot respond to your questions,
adopt the same systematic approach.
Feel the pulse. Is it strong and regular, or is it
fast, slow, or weak?
Feel the skin. Is it warm or cold, dry, or
clammy?
Feel for any lumps, swelling, and/or defor-
mity; check the victim systematically, from
head to toe.

To identify specic signs and symptoms of ill-
nesses or injury, examine the victim and obtain
a history by asking specic questions. The fol-
lowing chart shows parameters for a complete
head-to-toe assessment. It may not be necessary
Identifying Specic Signs and Symptoms
to perform all of these checks on conscious
victims, because they will usually tell you what
is wrong. The Third Rescuer should record the
signs and symptoms that are found.
General
Check for drowsiness, con-
fusion, or anxious behavior.
Such behavior can be due
to a lack of oxygen (such as
hypoxia), head injury, hypo-
glycemia, alcohol intoxica-
tion, or substance abuse.
Assess the victim for short-
ness of breath or unusually
rapid, slow, shallow, or
deep breathing.
Feel the pulse in the wrist;
check to see whether it is
strong or weak, abnormally
fast, slow, or irregular.
Ask if the victim is in pain.
Identify the site. Ask if the
pain is mild, moderate, or
severe; sharp, cramping,
aching, or throbbing; con-
stant or variable.
Rate the pain on a scale
of 110
1 no pain
10 extreme pain
Ask if the victim is dizzy or
feeling faint.
Is the victim bleeding?
Check for weakness or
trembling.
Ask if the victim is unusually
thirsty or hungry or has a
decreased appetite, nausea/
vomiting, or diarrhea.
Ask the victim if he or she
has had a fever or chills.
Skin
Look at the color of the
face and ngers. Pale or
blue skin can indicate a lack
of blood and/or oxygen, as
Eyes
Look for bleeding, bruising,
or swelling.
Check for visual distur-
bances, such as blurring or
difculty in focusing. If the
vision is affected, ask if the
victim has a history of

If the victim has a head
injury, look at the pupils;
they should be equal in size.
Shine a light into each eye
to see if the pupil contracts.
Any abnormalities (unequal
size or widely dilated) may
indicate a head injury or
stroke.
If the eyes are painful or
itchy, check for exposure to
irritants or burning sub-
stances or for allergies.
Look for any foreign objects
in the eye.
Ears
Look for a discharge of
blood or clear uid from
the ears.
Look for swelling or
deformity.
Ask if the victim has any
pain, fullness, or a
blocked feeling in the
ears.
Nose
Look for a discharge of
blood or clear uid.
Look for bruising, swelling,

Look for burns or scalds.
Feel exposed skin to detect
whether the victim is sweat-
ing or if the skin is cold and
moist (clammy) or hot
and dry.
Look for lumps, a rash, or
swollen or inamed areas.
Head and Neck
Look for bleeding, bruising,
lumps, or a depressed area
(which could indicate
trauma to the skull).
Ask if the victim has neck
pain.
Check for neck injuries, ten-
derness, or pain.
If a neck injury is suspected,
ask if the victim can move
his or her arms and legs and
if there is any numbness,
tingling, or weakness.
Ask if the victim has a head-
ache or a history of
migraine headaches.
Ask if there was any loss of
consciousness and for how
long.

Check to see if the victim
has difculty speaking or
slurred speech.
Check to see if the breath
smells abnormal.
Check vomit for any foreign
object, blood, or black
material that resembles
coffee grounds, which may
indicate bleeding from the
digestive tract.
Chest
Look for wounds, bruising,
or abnormal movement of
the chest or ribs.
Listen for coughing or
wheezing. Ask the color of
the phlegm (sputum).
Ask the victim to breathe in
deeply; check to see if
breathing is difcult or
painful.
Ask if the victim has any
burning, heaviness, pres-
sure, or pain in the chest.
Ask if the victim has had
palpitations (an abnormally
fast or erratic heartbeat).
Ask if the victim has heart
or lung disease.
Abdomen
Look for bleeding, bruising,
or swelling.
If the victim has abdominal
pain, ask him or her to
point to the location of the
pain with one nger. This
will help isolate the origin
of the pain.
Assess the victim for other
symptoms, such as nausea/
vomiting/diarrhea, bleed-
ing, or fever.
Ask the victim if his or her
hands and ngers feel
colder than normal.
Check the circulation by
using capillary rell.
Ask the victim to move his
or her hands and ngers.
Check for numbness, tin-
gling, or weakness in the
hands and ngers.
Legs
Check the legs for bleeding,
bruising, swelling, or
deformity.
Ask if the victim has pain in
the legs or hips. Compare
the two legs to check for
swelling/differences in skin
color or the presence of
shortening of one leg when
compared to the other.
If no deformity is noted, ask
the victim to move the legs
and bend the ankles and
knees to assess for pain or
limited range of motion.
Feet
Look for bleeding, bruising,
or deformity.
Check the toes for a normal
color. Gray or blue toes
could indicate poor circula-
tion, hypoxia, shock, or
hypothermia.
Ask the victim if his or her
feet and toes feel colder
than normal.
Ask the victim to move his
or her feet and toes.
Check for numbness, tin-
gling, or weakness in the
feet and toes.
Check to see whether the
victim can walk or bear
weight.
Ask if there is any pain or
burning with urination.
If the victim is female and
of childbearing age, ask
when the last menstrual
cycle was and if she thinks
she might be pregnant.
If the victim is female, ask if
there is any vaginal
bleeding/discharge.
Back
If an injury has occurred,
ask if there is any back pain.
If the victim has severe pain
or any difcultly moving
normally, suspect back
injury. If this is the case, do
not move the victim to check
the back unless the scene
is unsafe.
If the victim has back pain
but no sign of injury, ask if
there is a history of back
pain/injury or previous
surgery.
If you suspect a back injury,
ask the victim if he or she
has any numbness/tingling/
weakness of the arms or
legs.
Arms
Check the arms, shoulders,
and collarbones for bleed-
ing, bruising, or deformity.
If no deformity is noted, ask
the victim to move the arms
and bend the elbows to
determine whether pain is
present or range of motion
is limited.
Hands
Look for bleeding, bruising,
or deformity.
Check the nail beds for a
normal color. Gray or blue
nail beds could indicate
poor circulation, hypoxia,
shock, or hypothermia.

Life-saving Procedures
This section reviews the anatomy and physiology of the cardiopulmonary system as it
relates to the performance of CPR.
The human body relies on a fully functioning
cardiopulmonary system in order to sustain life.
The respiratory system, consisting of the
airway/lungs, and the circulatory system, com-
prising the heart and blood vessels, work
together to supply and circulate oxygen. To
ensure an adequate oxygen supply to the body,
three processes (known as the ABCs) have to
function properly.
A: AirwayThe airway to the lungs must be
open and clear, allowing air and oxygen to
enter the lungs.
B: BreathingThe lungs and chest muscles
must function normally so that air can move
in and out of the lungs. This is necessary so
that oxygen and carbon dioxide can be
exchanged in the lungs.
C: CirculationThe heart must pump suf-
cient blood to carry oxygen from the lungs to
the vital organs and remove waste products
from the tissues.
How Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation
(CPR) Works
If the airway, breathing, and circulation do not
function adequately, the body cells will not
receive enough oxygen and will eventually die.
If the brain is without oxygen for several
minutes, perma nent brain damage will occur. It
is pos sible, however, to supply oxygen to the
body by using resuscitation techniques that
combine rescue breaths and chest compressions.
CPR is a skill that provides a temporary sub-
stitution for cardiac function and respirations.
CPR includes two manual skills: rescue breath-
ing and chest compressions. When a victim is
unresponsive and not breathing, rescue breaths
are initiated to provide temporary breathing for
the victim, which delivers oxygen to the blood.
Chest compressions are initiated to mechani-
cally compress the heart between the breast
bone and spine to pump blood from the heart
throughout the body.

Structures Involved in Supplying Oxygen
The airway, lungs, and heart work together to supply oxygen to the body. As air is inhaled, the lungs expand and
absorb oxygen into the blood via the air sacs (alveoli); the lungs then contract during exhalation, releasing carbon
dioxide. This process is called respiration. The heart pumps oxygen-rich blood from the lungs into blood vessels
(arteries), which carry it to all the body cells. The arteries connect to the capillaries (very small blood vessels that lie
very close to the body cells). In the capillary bed, oxygen and carbon dioxide are exchanged and the blood continues
out of the capillaries into the veins. The blood ows through the veins back to the heart, where carbon dioxide is
exhaled and oxygen is inhaled. If any of these structures do not function properly, CPR is indicated.

CPRAdult and Child Resuscitation
This section explains how to perform resuscitation procedures (CPR) if a victim is unre-
sponsive and has no signs of breathing or has abnormal breathing, such as agonal
breathing or gasps. The new guidelines are the same for adults and children older than
1 year of age. The American Heart Association (AHA) and European Resuscitation
Council (ERC) guidelines are both included.
If a victim appears to be seriously ill or injured,
take the following steps. Ensure scene safety
for yourself and the victim. Look for a
response in the victim. Send for help. Open
the airway and give 2 breaths if the victim is
not breathing normally. Begin chest compres-
sions at a rate of 100 per minute (30 compres-
sions/2 breaths) and consider debrillation.
An easy way to remember these four steps is
by their initials: ABCD.

When managing an unrespon-
sive victim, it is important to
follow an emergency response
plan. Ask other crew members
or, if necessary, passengers to
assist you as the Second
Response
If the victim is unconscious,
check for response by shaking
the victims shoulders gently
and calling a command or a
question such as, Are you
OK? An unconscious victim
will not respond.
Send for Medical Help
If the victim is unconscious
and does not respond to you,
call for help and the medical
equipment. The Second
Rescuer should obtain the
medical kit, the AED, and the
oxygen equipment. The Third
Rescuer should inform the
ight crew of the emergency
so that they can contact
MedLink.
Preliminary Actions
Rescuer and Third Rescuer
(see Resuscitation Plan).
Before you begin assessment
and treatment, perform the
following steps:
Scene Safety
Check that the area near the
victim contains no hazards to
you or the victim. Include
environmental safety (e.g.,
re, turbulence, electricity,
blood, or vomit) and personal
safety (e.g., pocket mask,
gloves). If there are hazards,
safely eliminate them, if possi-
ble, to ensure that the scene is
safe before you approach the
victim. Put on disposable
gloves and use the pocket
mask to protect yourself.

When a victim is
unconscious, all the
muscles, including
those of the throat
and tongue, are
relaxed. If a victim is
lying on his or her back,
the tongue can fall to the
back of the throat and block
the airway. The tongue is the
most common cause of
airway obstruction in an
unconscious victim. Open
the airway by gently tilting the
victims head back. This pre-
vents the tongue from block-
ing the airway and opens the
airway.

under the chin and lift the jaw
slightly. This is called the
head tilt/chin lift maneuver.
This maneuver will lift the
tongue away from the back of
the throat and keep the airway
open.

Once the airway is open,
check for breathing.

If you know the airway is
obstructed (see Relief of

gloves and remove any visible
obstruction. Prepare your
pocket mask for rescue
breathing.

The airway must be clear
before rescue breaths are given
to ensure adequate ventilation.
Anything in the victims mouth,
such as loose dentures or
vomit, can block the airway
and should be removed. It is
very common for victims of
cardiac arrest to vomit. Rescu-
ers should be prepared and
use protective equipment.
Carefully remove any visible
loose objects with your gloved
nger. Clear away vomit or
other uids using a manual
suction device. Insert the end
of the suction device into the
victims mouth, then squeeze
and release the bulb repeatedly
to suck uid out of the mouth.
Alternatively, you could use a
mechanical vacuum pump
called an aspirator.

Put on gloves. If the victim
is vomiting, turn the victim
on his or her side.
2
Remove any visible loose

the victims airway, breathing,
and response.
Note: Victims of cardiac
arrest may have irregular/
abnormal shallow breathing
or infrequent gasps called
agonal breathing in the rst
few minutes following a
cardiac arrest. This is not
normal breathing and CPR
should be initiated, including
giving rescue breaths.
4
If the victim is not breath-
ing normally, begin rescue
breathing. Give two breaths
for 1 second each. Watch to
make sure the chest rises and
falls. Use a pocket mask or
face shield for protection.
ERC Guidelines
Open the airway using
the head tilt/chin lift
maneuver.
Look, listen, and feel for

If the victim is not
breathing normally (or
not breathing), begin
CPR starting with
30 chest compressions
and 2 breaths.

Constraints Onboard
Aircraft
Onboard an aircraft, it may be
difcult to place a victim in
the recovery position because
of limited space. However, it is
essential to keep the airway
open to allow secretions to
drain out of the mouth. Stay
with the victim.
If you suspect a neck or
spinal injury, you should turn
the victim by performing the
log roll technique (see Neck
and Back Injuries), which
keeps the victims head, neck,
and spine in alignment while
being turned.

technique.
Maintain an open airway.
Allow vomit and other
uids to drain from the
mouth and prevent an
obstruction.
Maintain neck and spine
alignment and stability.
A commonly used recovery
position is shown here. It is
assumed that the victim has
been found lying on his or her
back. Before placing a victim
in the recovery position,
attempt to determine what
caused the illness or injury
and consider the possibility of
a neck or spinal injury.

1
If the victim is lying on his
or her back, tilt the head
back to open the airway to
ensure continued breathing.
Remove glasses or any other
items that may cause injury.
2
Take the victims arm
closest to you and bend it
at the elbow. Position the arm
so that the hand is in line with
the victims head.
3
Bring the victims other
arm across the chest; place
the hand under his or her
cheek. Grasp the victims far
leg just above the knee and
pull it toward you.
4
Continue
holding the vic-
tims knee and grasp
the far shoulder with
your other hand.
Then pull the victim
toward you, rolling
the victim onto his
or her side.
Watch for any signs of deterio-
ration. If the victim vomits,
clear the airway using a
suction device.
7
Perform a secondary survey
to identify any other condi-
tions and initiate treatment as
indictated.
8
If the victim has been lying
in the recovery position
longer than 15 minutes, roll
them onto their back and then
onto the opposite side using
the method shown in steps
15 earlier. This measure will
relieve undue pressure on the
areas of the body that are in
contact with a rm surface.
5
Position the victims bent
leg to support the body
and prevent forward rolling.
The victims head, neck, and
spine should be in a straight
line. The hand under the cheek
should be supporting the
head. Maintain an open
airway.
6
Seek urgent advice from
MedLink. Stay with the
victim. Cover the victim with a
blanket to maintain normal
body temperature. Monitor
airway, breathing, and

Rescue Breathing
Rescue breathing is used for a
victim who is unconscious and
not breathing normally.
During rescue breathing, the
rescuer exhales air from his or
her lungs into the victims
airway to supply oxygen to
vital organs such as the brain
and the heart. The air that is
exhaled contains approxi-
mately 17% oxygen and 4%
carbon dioxide, which is
enough to sustain life for a

2
Open the victims airway
by using the head tilt/chin
lift method. Check for normal
breathing.
3
If using a mask, apply
enough pressure on the
mask to maintain a tight seal
over the mouth and nose.
Blow into the mask port. For
mouth-to-mouth breathing
(if mask is not available),
pinch the victims nose, then
seal your mouth over his or her
open mouth and deliver
breaths. For an infant or child,
seal your mouth around the
victims entire mouth/nose
and breathe.
4
Maintain an airtight seal
with your mouth or mask,
lift the chin, and breathe
into the victims mouth for
1 second. Look at the chest; it
should rise as you deliver the
breath.
5
Remove your mouth/mask
to let the air leave the vic-
tims lungs. You should see the
victims chest fall. Each rise
and fall of the chest is called
an effective breath.
6
Repeat the second breath,
1 second in duration.

Give 30 chest compres-
sions at a rate of 100 com-
pressions per minute followed
by 2 breaths. Continue
30 chest compressions
and 2 breaths until the AED
is available.

Alternative Methods of Rescue Breathing
The mouth-to-mouth method of rescue breath-
ing may need to be adapted in certain situa-
tions. If a victim has a mouth or jaw injury, it
may not be possible to open his or her mouth,
in which case rescue breathing is done through
the nose. If a victim has had an operation to
Mouth-to-Nose Breathing
Open and clear the victims airway. Hold the victims
mouth closed with your hands. Seal your mouth over
his or her nose and deliver breaths into the nose. After
each breath, lift your mouth/shield and hand away to
allow the air to escape from the lungs. If a pocket
mask is available, cover the mouth and nose (see How
to Use Face Protection) and use the pocket mask
using the usual technique.
Mouth-to-Stoma Breathing
Hold the victims nose and mouth closed with one
hand. Place your mouth over the stoma to make an
airtight seal, then deliver breaths into the stoma. After
giving each breath, lift your mouth/face shield away
to allow air to escape from the lungs.
Rescue Breathing, continued
remove the voice box (laryngectomy) or to
open the windpipe (tracheostomy), he or she
will breathe through a hole (stoma) in the neck.
In this case, give rescue breaths through the
stoma, using a plastic face shield to protect
yourself and the victim.
Face protection minimizes the risk of infection for you and the victim during rescue breathing. There
are several types of face protection, but the most common are simple barrier devices such as the
plastic face shield or the pocket mask. Once you have nished using the barrier device, dispose of it
in a biohazard bag.
Pocket Mask
Place the mask on the
victims face, pressing
gently to make an air-
tight seal. Give breaths
into the one-way valve.
If possible, attach the
oxygen tubing to the
oxygen inlet port.
Plastic Face Shield
This device consists of
a plastic sheet with a
lter. Place the shield
on the victims face
with the lter over the
mouth. Pinch the nose
and give rescue breaths
through the lter.
HOW TO USE TO FACE PROTECTION
Caution: If the AED is providing a shock, the oxygen should not be owing near the victims
face during the shock and should be turned off or moved away from the area.

If an unconscious victim
shows no signs of response
or normal breathing, begin
CPR. This is a technique that
combines rescue breathing
ow to the body. Compressing
the heart between the breast
bone (sternum) and the spine
moves blood from the heart
into the arteries and through
the rest of the body. When the
pressure is released, blood
ows back into the heart from
the veins.
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)
and chest compressions.
Rescue breathing supplies
oxygen to the victim, and
chest compressions provide
circulation by forcing oxygen-
ated blood through the heart
and into the blood vessels.
CPR does not usually
restore a normal heart rhythm.
However, an AED may restore
the hearts normal rhythm if
the victim is in ventricular
brillation. Therefore, the AED
should be applied as soon as
it is available (see Automated
External Debrillator [AED]).

rm, at surface. Kneel next to the victims
chest.
5
Remove all clothing covering the victims
chest. Use scissors to cut shirts/undergar-
ments or pull them up out of the way.
6
Position your hands as shown below.
7
Lean over the victim, with your shoulders
directly over your hands. Keeping your arms
straight, compress the chest to the depth appro-
priate for the size of the victim. Release the pres-
sure without removing your hands from the
chest wall, which will allow the chest to recoil
upward between compressions.
HOW TO GIVE CARDIOPULMONARY RESUSCITATION (CPR)

hand in the center of the
victims bare chest
between the nipples. Put
the heel of your other
hand on top of the rst.

or two ngers (depend-
ing on the size of the
child) in the center of the
childs bare chest
between the nipples.
Compress the chest one-
third to one-half the
depth of the chest with
each compression.

Give 30 regular, smooth compressions, at a
rate of 100 per minute, keeping your hands
on the breastbone throughout. Push hard and
push fast. Give 2 effective rescue breaths after
each set of 30 compressions.
9
Minimize interruptions in chest compres-
sions. Continue cycles of 30 chest com-
pressions and 2 breaths. Maintain a rate of
100 compressions per minute.
10
Continue CPR until one of the following
occurs.
Breathing and circulation resume.
The scene becomes unsafe.
The AED is available/attached and ready to
analyze.
CPR has continued for 30 minutes with no
response and landing is not imminent.
You are too tired to continue.
MedLink advises you to stop.
The aircraft lands and care is transferred to

Automated External Debrillator (AED)
The most common cause of cardiopulmonary arrest in adults is ventricular brillation
(VF). VF is a chaotic heart rhythm that does not allow the heart to pump blood to body
cells. If a victim is unresponsive and not breathing (cardiopulmonary arrest), immedi-
ately begin CPR and continue until the AED is available. The AED analyzes the heart
rhythm, and if VF is detected, it will advise the user to deliver a shock to the heart
(debrillation), which is the only effective treatment for VF. The chance of successful
debrillation decreases by 10% per minute following a cardiac arrest, so it is important
to apply the AED as soon as possible.
The following electrocardiogram (EKG) strip shows an abnormal heart rhythm that deteroriated into
ventricular brillation and cardiac arrest. The AED delivers a shock to the heart to interrupt this
rhythm and convert it to a normal heart rhythm (not shown).
VENTRICULAR FIBRILLATION
Indications for Use
The debrillator must be used only by
trained rescuers. It should be
applied only to a victim who
ts all of the following
criteria:
Unconscious/
unresponsive
Not breathing normally
Victims 8 years of age and
older: Start CPR and use the
AED as soon as it is available
Victims age 18 years: Perform
5 sets of 30 compressions and
2 breaths (2 minutes), then apply
the AED.
ERC Guidelines
The AED should be applied as soon as it is
available for all victims.

1
Clear the area around the
victim. Place the AED
beside the victim near you and
turn it on. Continue CPR until
the AED is applied and ready to
analyze. It is important to mini-
mize any interruptions in CPR.
2
Expose the victims chest
and remove any jewelry,
medication patches, and body
hair that could interfere with
the electrode pads. Put on
gloves before removing medi-
cation patches or hair. (Some
AED kits include razors for
shaving chest hair.) Wipe
excess moisture from the
chest. Dispose of used razors
carefully.

To apply each AED pad,
remove the backing paper,
then place the AED pad on the
chest as shown on the diagram
on the back of the pads.
Adult Placement
Place the rst pad on the
upper right side of the
chest, just below the
collarbone.
Place the second pad to the
left of the nipple a few
inches below the armpit on
the left side of the chest.
Child Placement
Ages 18
Apply child pads as illus-
trated on the pads.
If adult pads are used,
apply one pad on the back
press the SHOCK button to
deliver the shock.
8
After the shock has been
delivered, immediately
begin CPR, starting with chest
compressions.
9
After 2 minutes of CPR, the
AED will re-analyze and
advise if a shock is indicated.
Follow AED prompts. Continue
CPR if victim remains unre-
sponsive and is not breathing.
10
Leave the AED con-
nected to the victim.
Do not turn the AED off until
the aircraft has landed and the
victim has been turned over to
the care of emergency medical
services on the ground, even if
the victim appears to have
recovered. The AED will con-
tinue to monitor the victim.
Special Considerations
If the victim is a member of
the ight crew, remove him
or her from the ight deck
if possible. If it is not pos-
sible to move the victim,
most AEDs can be safely
used on the ight deck.
Exercise extreme caution
so as not to interfere with
the remaining ight crew.
The AED can be applied to
a victim in the seat if he or
she cannot be moved safely
or quickly.
It is safe to use the AED
on wet or metal surfaces.
Remove all medication
patches with gloves.
Remove body jewelry that
is in the way of the AED
pads; ensure that the pads
are not touching any body
jewelry.
Always place AED pads to
the side of an implanted
pacemaker, not directly
over it or touching it.
Extreme heat or cold may
alter the performance and
function of the AED.
between the shoulder
blades and the other pad in
the upper right side of the
chest below the collarbone.
Ages 8 Years and Older
Use adult pads.
Do not use child pads or a
child dose.
Note: See Use of the AED
in Children.
4
Ensure that the connector
from the electrodes is
secured to the AED.
5
Move the oxygen tank away
from the immediate area
at least 5 to 6 feet awayor
turn it off.
6
The AED will issue a series
of verbal and visual
prompts. Make sure that no
one is touching the victim
because that will interfere with
the AEDs ability to read and
analyze the heart rhythm. The
AED will analyze the heart
rhythm and advise if it is a
shockable rhythm.
7
If the AED advises no
shock, follow the rest of
the prompts. If the AED
advises a shock, call, Stand
clear! Again, make sure that
no one is touching the victim.

Cardiopulmonary arrest in children is rare and
is often associated with a respiratory arrest rst.
As a result, effective CPR is especially important
in children, and according to AHA guidelines, it
should be continued for 2 minutes (5 sets of
30 compressions/2 breaths) prior to attaching
the AED.
The ERC recommends that the AED be
attached to children as soon as it is available.
If the AED is indicated in children 8 years
old or older:
Use adult pads and continue as per the adult
sequence (see How to use a Debrillator).
If the AED is indicated in children 1 to
8 years old:
Use pediatric/child pads if available.
If pediatric/child pads are not available, use
adult pads in the anterior/posterior position
(front/back). Make sure the edges of the
pads do not touch (see How to Use a
Debrillator).
If the AED has a special key or switch to
deliver a child dose, use according to manu-
facturers instructions.
It is recommended that the specic AED
manufacturer be contacted about its proce-
dure/recommendation for use of the AED
in children.

Are you choking?
2
If the obstruction is mild
and air exchange is ade-

Call MedLink or activate
the EMS service if the mild
airway obstruction continues.
5
Continue to stay with the
victim and monitor for
worsening symptoms.
Severe Airway Obstruction
If signs of severe airway
obstruction are present and
the victim becomes weaker or
stops coughing, you will need
to use the abdominal thrusts
(Heimlich maneuver) to relieve
the choking.
1
Position yourself close
behind the victim and put
your arms under his or her
arms, encircling the victims
torso.
2
With one hand, make a st
and place the thumb side
of your st against the victims
upper abdomen, slightly above
the navel and well below the
tip of the breastbone. Grasp
your st with your other hand.
3
Give quick upward thrusts
into the abdomen. Pull
your st sharply inward and
upward against the victims
abdomen. Each thrust should
around the chest. Place one
st with the thumb side on
the breastbone between
the nipples (same position
as for chest compressions
for CPR). Grasp your st
with the other hand and
pull sharply backward.
Continue chest thrusts until
the obstruction is dis-
lodged or the victim
becomes unconscious.
Treat objects that are dis-
lodged from the throat as
potentially infectious mate-
rial. Dispose of gloves,

Warning
If the victim becomes
unconscious, treat as
directed in the following
section.
Do not give abdominal
thrusts on or near the tip of

The signs and symptoms of
choking in an infant vary
depending on the degree of
obstruction of the airway to
the lungs. If the airway is
partially blocked, the infant
The signs and symptoms of
severe airway obstruction
are as follows.
High-pitched wheezing may
be heard, or no sound at all.
Infant is having difculty
breathing.
Cough is poor or ineffective.
Infant is in severe distress.
Infant is unable to cry or
make sounds.
Infants face may turn blue.
Breathing may cease.
Infant may become
unconscious.
Choking in a Conscious Infant
will be distressed and cough-
ing. If it is completely
blocked, the infant will be
unable to breathe or cough
and will eventually become
unconscious.
Signs and Symptoms
The signs and symptoms of
mild airway obstruction are
as follows.
Infant is responsive and
coughing.
Wheezing may be present.
There is good air exchange
(breathing).

If the infant gets weaker
or stops coughing, follow
these steps to relieve the
obstruction:
1
Sit or kneel with the infant
in your lap.
2
Hold the infant face down
with the head lower than
the chest. Support the infants
head/jaw in your hand.
chest thrust should be a quick,
separate movement. The chest
thrust should be sufcient to
force air out of the infants
lungs. The pressure of the air
may dislodge the obstruction.

chest thrusts until the obstruc-
tion is relieved or the infant
becomes unresponsive.
Warning
If the infant becomes
unconscious, treat as
directed in the following
section.
Never perform a blind
nger sweep in infants or
children because this may
cause the ob struction to be
moved further into the

Respiratory System Disorders
This section covers the respiratory system, which includes a brief review of anatomy/
physiology and describes medical conditions that can prevent normal respiratory func-
tion. In-ight management of common respiratory conditions is also included.
This system includes the nose, mouth, air pas-
sages, and lungs. Inhaled air containing 21%
oxygen enters the nose and mouth and passes
down the windpipe (trachea) into the lungs,
where oxygen is absorbed into the blood. At
the same time, carbon dioxide (a by-product of
metabolism not required by the body) passes
from the blood into the lungs, to be exhaled.
This exchange of gases is called respiration.
Breathing is the chest move ment that causes the
lungs to take in and expel air. At rest, an adult
breathes 12 to 16 times per minute. (Children
and babies breathe 20 to 30 times per minute.)
The rate and depth of breathing is controlled by
the brain, normally in response to the amount
of carbon dioxide in the blood.
Anatomy of the Respiratory System
Respiratory Tract and Gas Exchange
There are two parts to the respiratory tract. The upper part of the respiratory tract extends from the nose and
mouth, where air is warmed and moistened, to the windpipe (trachea). The lower part consists of the air pas-
sages in the lungs (one bronchus leading to each lung, which divides into bronchioles, then into tiny air sacs
[alveoli], where gas exchange occurs).
In the lungs, oxygen passes through the walls of the air sacs (alveoli) into red blood cells, to be carried to
other body cells. In the capillaries, oxygen moves from the blood into the cells and is exchanged for carbon
dioxide, which is taken back to the lungs and exhaled.

Asthma is a serious medical
condition that causes difculty
breathing as a result of spasms
of the airways (bronchioles),
which cause airway constric-
tion. In addition, the lining of
the airway becomes inamed
and produces excess mucus,
which can block some of the
smaller airway passages. Mild
asthma attacks cause wheez-
ing and shortness of breath.
Severe attacks can deprive the
body of oxygen, which can
cause severe respiratory dis-
tress and possibly death. Most
people who suffer from

occur in people who have no
previous history of asthma.
Trigger Factors
Factors that trigger asthma
attacks vary among individu-
als. Triggers include upper
respiratory tract infections
such as a cold or u; exercise;
stress; allergic reactions to
substances such as dust,
pollen, or animal fur; expo-
sure to cold air or air pollu-
tion; and a change in weather
conditions.

shaking it and then pressing
the metal canister down to
release one puff of medication
into the air.
4
If the victim needs another
dose, advise repeating
steps 2 and 3 once.
5
If there is no immediate
improvement in the vic-
tims condition, seek urgent
advice from MedLink.
6
If the victim nds it dif-
cult to use the inhaler, t
the device to the spacer to
deliver the medication.
2
Give the inhaler to the
victim. Advise the victim to
breathe out and then close his
or her lips around the
mouthpiece.
3
Instruct the victim to press
the top of the canister
while taking a deep breath
from it, then to hold his or her
breath for a few seconds.

coach the victims breathing
into a more normal rate/
rhythm.
4
Assess the nature and
severity of the asthma
attack. Assess the victims
breathing. Ask if there is a
history of breathing problems
or asthma.
5
Reassure the victim. If the
victim has medication for
asthma (i.e., an inhaler),
advise him or her to use it.
Assist the victim as necessary.
If the victims breathing is not
improving with the inhaler or if
the victim does not have an
inhaler, call MedLink.
INITIAL CARE
Albuterol is given to victims who are having an asthma attack or who have chronic lung disease.
Most people with asthma or chronic lung disease carry their own medication.

tory distress or becomes
unconscious, see Life-saving
Procedures. Som inhalers
may be contraindicated in
some lung diseases. Consult
MedLink.
USE OF A SPACER WITH AN INHALER
Hyperventilation occurs when
the rate and depth of breath-
ing increase, causing the
carbon dioxide (CO
2
) level in
the blood to fall abnormally
low. The breathing rate is par-
tially inuenced by the level
of CO
2
present in the blood.
When the level of CO
2
falls,
chemical changes occur in the
blood, leading to problems
such as numbness in the
hands and feet. Hyperventila-
tion is usually caused by
anxiety brought on by a panic
attack, a phobia such as a fear
of ying, or emotional stress.
The condition can also occur
in people with certain medical
conditions, such as diabetes,
or in cases of a drug overdose.

Long-term lung diseases such
as chronic obstructive pulmo-
nary disease (COPD) cause
permanent lung damage, short-
ness of breath, and progressive
damage to the heart and lungs.
The airways become inamed
(bronchitis) and cause damage
to the air sacs in the lungs
(emphysema). COPD com-
monly affects elderly people,
especially those who have
smoked cigarettes. Passengers
with COPD are more likely to
develop hypoxia under normal
cabin conditions and may need
to use supplemental oxygen
throughout the ight.

INITIAL CARE
A pneumothorax (collapsed
lung) occurs when air enters
the space between the lung
and the lining of the chest wall.
This causes a partial or com-
plete collapse of the lung and
results in difculty breathing
and chest pain. A pneumotho-
rax can occur from a direct
injury to the chest wall or
without any obvious reason
(spontaneous pneumothorax).
A tension pneumothorax occurs
when the air in the chest is
under pressure and compresses
the lungs, heart, and vital chest
organs; this is a life-threatening
emergency and must be treated
as soon as possible. If a person
has a pneumothorax before
boarding a ight, the air will
expand during ascent, causing

Cardiovascular Disorders
This section describes the initial care for victims with conditions that affect the cardio-
vascular system, which includes the heart (cardio) and blood vessels (vascular).
Common medical conditions include shock, heart attack, and deep vein thrombosis
(DVT). A brief review of the anatomy and physiology of the cardiovascular system is
included in the following section.
This system consists of the
heart (muscular pump) and
blood vessels (arteries, veins,
and capillaries), which trans-
port the blood. Oxygen-rich
blood passes from the lungs to
the left side of the heart,
where it is pumped out of the
left ventricle into the aorta
(the main artery in the body).
The aorta connects to a com-
back into the blood. Once this
exchange occurs, the unoxy-
genated blood travels out of
the capillaries and into the
veins and venous system and
back to the right side of the
heart, where it goes back to
the lungs for gas exchange
(CO
2
is exchanged for oxygen
during respiration).
Anatomy of the Cardiovascular System
prehensive arterial system,
which delivers oxygenated
blood to all body cells. At the
cellular level, the smallest
arteries connect to the capillar-
ies, where the actual exchange
of oxygen and waste products
(CO
2
) occurs. Oxygen moves
out of the blood into body
cells in exchange for CO
2
,
which moves out of cells and
Structure of the Cardiovascular System
The heart is at the center of the cardiovascular system.
Arteries carry blood from the heart to other tissues and
body cells. Capillaries connect the arteries and veins,
which allows the exchange of oxygen and CO
2
in the cells.
Veins return the unoxygenated blood to the heart. Every
part of the body is supplied with arteries/capillaries and
veins; the main blood vessels are shown here.

The Heart
This is a muscular organ about the size
of a st. It has its own blood supply
(coronary arteries) and pacemaker,
which stimulates continual contractions
(heartbeats). In adults, the heart beats
about 72 times per minute at rest; the
rate is faster in babies and children.

Types of Blood Vessels
Arteries have thick, muscular walls because they
carry waves of high-pressure blood. These
waves can be felt in certain areas of the body
and are called the pulse. Veins have thinner
walls with valves to keep blood owing toward
the heart. Capillaries are tiny vessels that link
arteries to veins. They have thin walls through
which oxygen and waste products (CO
2
) pass
during gas exchange.

There are many types of heart
disease, but only the most
common conditions are
reviewed in this section. When
the heart muscle is weak or
damaged, it can no longer
pump blood efciently
throughout the body. Coro-
nary artery disease (CAD) is a
term that refers to conditions
in which the arteries that
supply blood to the heart
muscle (coronary arteries) are
diseased or blocked by fatty
deposits or blood clots. As a
result, the heart muscle does
not receive sufcient blood
and oxygen to function effec-
tively, which can result in
chest pain (angina pectoris) or
a heart attack (acute myocar-
dial infarction; AMI). There are
risk factors that place individu-
Modiable risks (those that
can be controlled or elimi-
nated with lifestyle changes,
diet, and medication) include:
Smoking
High triglycerides

oping CAD. Although men
and women share most risk
factors, women have a few
