Is it true that helicopters transport patients with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation?

On February 2, 65438, Shanghai Jinhui Aviation Co., Ltd. successfully completed the first helicopter transport of patients with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in China, which marked that the level of collaborative rescue of cardiovascular emergency and severe diseases in China reached a new height, and at the same time opened a new chapter in the field of helicopter rescue.

It is understood that a patient in Shenzhen, Mr. Jiang, was unable to support his physical function due to cardiogenic shock. He needs a professional extracorporeal membrane-lung-oxygen extracorporeal circulation system to maintain his life, and he is in urgent need of being transferred to a related hospital in Guangzhou for a heart transplant. It's about 2 hours' drive from Shenzhen to Guangzhou. In order to avoid the bumps in the journey and reduce the secondary injury to patients, at the same time, in order to gain more precious time, patients can have heart transplantation as soon as possible. The family called Jin Hui for help, hoping to transfer quickly by helicopter. As a result, Shenzhen Hospital of Southern Medical University joined hands with Jinhui to launch helicopter rescue and defend life.

Medical staff transferred patients with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation from ICU to helicopter. At the same time, patients and intensive care equipment on patients are professionally and quickly transferred to helicopters. Jin Hui rescue team took off at 7: 0014 after making all preparations, landed at Guangzhou Yanzigang Stadium at 7: 47, and was then "ground-air linkage" by ambulance, and was sent to the hospital seamlessly. The whole journey 1 18km takes only 33 minutes. At present, the patient has been sent to the emergency department for surgery, which has won the best treatment time for his life.
