In a critical medical evacuation operation, EMSOS Medical successfully transferred an 85-year-old female patient from a local hospital in Kanpur to a tertiary care facility in Delhi. The patient suffered from multiple life-threatening conditions, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), right-sided pneumonia, pulmonary tuberculosis, sepsis, acute kidney injury (AKI), urinary tract infection (UTI), atrial fibrillation (AF), and was on ventilator support.

Her condition had shown no improvement at the Kanpur facility, and the family urgently sought transfer to a better-equipped tertiary care hospital in Delhi for specialised treatment. Recognising the critical urgency, the family contacted EMSOS Medical’s 24/7 air ambulance service to facilitate the medical evacuation.

The EMSOS team quickly activated their highly trained medical professionals and operations unit. Coordinating with hospital doctors, ground ambulance services, and regulatory authorities, EMSOS obtained all necessary clearances for the air evacuation on an emergency basis. The process was completed within a matter of hours, underscoring the company’s expertise in handling time-sensitive medical transfers.

An EMSOS Medical officer explained, “In critical cases like this, rapid decision-making and expert coordination make all the difference. Our focus was to ensure the patient remained stable throughout the transfer while providing continuous ventilator and ICU-level care.”

The patient was carefully stabilized and placed on board EMSOS’s ICU-configured air ambulance. The aircraft was equipped with advanced life-support systems, ventilators, continuous monitoring equipment, and an expert medical team comprising an intensivist and a critical care nurse. During the flight, the team closely monitored vital parameters, adjusted ventilator settings as needed, and administered medications, maintaining the patient in a stable yet critical condition throughout the journey.

Upon arrival at the Delhi tertiary care center, the patient was seamlessly transferred bed-to-bed from the air ambulance to the receiving hospital’s ICU. The efficient coordination ensured no delay in further treatment, which was critical given the patient’s complex medical condition.

This successful operation highlights the indispensable role of specialized air ambulance services for transferring critically ill patients when every second matters.
