Brief 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.
Detailed description
This is an observational study using a REDCap® questionnaire via an internet link, which will be distributed by any means (institution mailing lists via a referent, flash codes distributed to physicians, etc.). The questionnaire will assess the type of medicalisation, the type of activity, the different hours of intervention, the age, the type and the severity of the patient's disease, the type of care practiced and the stress of the physician.
