There are differing requirements for the transfer of patients ranging from critical care trauma cases, acute cardiac cases, to obstetric emergencies and paediatric and neonatal transport. Each of our aircraft at each of our five bases has access to the full range of equipment, which is standardised across the state. We pride ourselves on being an early adopter of new innovative technology. Whilst there are many types of biomedical equipment found in hospitals, only that which is compact, lightweight, robust and has an independent internal power supply is generally suited to our needs in the aero medical environment. We are continually evaluating and trialing new equipment and when suitable new technology becomes available which will substantially improve our patient care, we implement it promptly. In Western Australia we have been one of the first aero medical transport organisations to use a variety of new technology and equipment. 1970's Vickers neonatal transport cot with ventilator (1978)Doppler stethoscopesPortable volumetric infusion pumpsLifepak 5 portable defibrillator 1980's Drager Oxylog (1982)Aloka portable ultrasound (1983)Nellcor N-10 portable pulse oximetry (1986)Transcutaneous neonatal monitoring (TCM) (1988)Vacuum mattresses (1989)Lifepak 10P transcutaneous pacing 1990's 2000's Non-invasive ventilation (CPAP, BiPAP)Portable ultrasound in flight (2008)RFDS Blood Bank for retrievalNitric Oxide for neonatal transportsEZ-IO Intraosseous drillsIsopod portable isolation unitsVideo laryngoscopes 2010's Active warming blanketsBariatric Transport System (up to 300kg) Virtually all of our medical equipment and aircraft aero medical fit-outs are provided through donations from the community and benefactors.
