Description
Summary:Objective: to assess the results of evacuation of critically ill obstetric and gynecological patients by ground and air transports to improve the quality of a specialized medical aid on the basis of the technology developed by the Obstetric Resuscitative Advisory Center (ORAC). Subjects and methods. The study was based on the prospective and retrospective analysis of the results of evacuation of 358 critically ill obstetric and gynecological patients in the presence of severe gestosis (n=162), obstetric hemorrhages (n=74), abdominal (obstetric) sepsis (n=68), as well as pregnant women and puerparas with extragenital pathology (n=54) via ground (26.5%) and air (75.3%) transports by the workers of the ORAC in the period of 1998-2006. Results. Complex intensive care aimed at correcting major critical states, performed during evacuation by a resuscitative-advisory team, could provide the steady-state values of vital functions during transportation of obstetric and gynecological patients. Conclusion. A scheme has been developed for safe evacuation of critically ill obstetric and gynecological patients via ground and air transports by the ORAC workers. Key words: patient evacuation, gestosis, hemorrhage, sepsis, obstetrics, gynecology.
