Summary

Patient care who requires fast and intensive care by a mobile intensive care unit in a rescue helicopter is a common practice in Auvergne since more than 3 years. Indeed, a complete team (nurse and emergency physician) is on Dragon 63 and HeliSMUR 63 (SMUR = emergency medical services ). There are multiple fields of action, with a primary rescue activity (patient care directly at the site of the operation) but also secondary transport (transfer of patients from one hospital to another). This allows a reduction in transport time and therefore unavailability of the MICU team in general hospitals, which are in short supply of attending physicians. In addition, this allows patients to be repatriated to the Clermont-Ferrand University Hospital Center, which is the reference center for many pathologies and has the Level 3 adult and pediatric Trauma Center.
