A successful development in collaboration with the University Hospital in Uppsala, Sweden, is behind the delivery of two intensive care stretchers from AMT Solutions. The micus-aero stretchers are specially developed for use in airborne intensive care.
The delivery also included EASA approval for the micus-aero stretcher including medical devices for use in the Learjet 45 and Eurocopter AS365 N3.
Mobile Intensive Care
Micus-aero is a stretcher specifically developed for the transport of patients requiring intensive care. Micus-aero has integrated oxygen and interfaces to mount the stretcher safely in both aircraft, helicopter and road ambulance without using adaptors. Medical devices can be securely mounted on the configurable medical device shelf and the stretcher including medical equipment is tested and approved for use both in the air and on the road.
The micus-aero is also suitable as a mobile intensive care unit (ICU) for increasing ICU resources in disaster areas. In cooperation with Business Sweden AMT Solutions will be exhibiting at the Swedish pavilion at AidEx 2014 in Brussels on November 12-13, 2014.
Focus on usability
Each year Uppsala university hospital carries out about 800 missions, both planned patient transport and emergency missions.
– Learning from the experience of Uppsala’s nurses, doctors, pilots and medical technicians have been hugely important during development, said Peter Johansson, Head of Development at AMT Solutions.
– In the development work, we have focused on creating a comfortable and user friendly intensive care unit that provides the crew with the best conditions to provide safe care throughout the transport chain, or as we say from the” bed-to-bed ‘ Peter Johansson concludes.
