What is medevac? Medevac or Medivac means medical evacuation. It’s the transfer of patients from one location to a medical health facility needing emergency treatment or procedures.
Medevac isn’t just for any medical emergency. It generally refers to transporting a patient to a specialized medical facility or their hospital of choice. These medevac calls are usually from remote areas in the Philippines. They request for transfer to hospitals such a provincial hospital that has the necessary equipment the patient needs.
Medevac for Airgurus refers to private patient airlift services using a helicopter or a fixed wing aircraft. Most cases at Airgurus are on travelers who find themselves in amazing places but off the beaten path. That’s because sometimes, adequate medical care they needed is not available. In a developing country like the Philippines, medical care is inadequate and unavailable in most areas where tourists visit. In situations where there is a lack of proper medical specialist for patient’s condition, insufficient and apt medicine and equipment, or substandard quality of care, ground travel is just not going to help the patient especially when it comes to their golden hours… the hours between life and that.
Airgurus is the leading provider of medical evacuation allowing the quickest access during medical emergencies. Every emergency inquiry is promptly handled by the staff at Airgurus. They are available round the clock, 365 days a year. The medically-suited helicopter or fixed wing aircraft is immediately sent for a medical mission. Each patient’s transfer comes with the nurse from the in-house staff. And or physician if appropriate treatment is a requirement i.e., ensuring that the patient’s condition is stable during the flight until transfer is complete. If needing a ground ambulance, it is also available on standby for areas not accessible to airlift transfer.

Every second counts. This is why air ambulance services in the Philippines are important in medical emergencies. Emergencies can strike anytime and anywhere to anybody that is why air ambulance services in the Philippines are important.
It all happens to anyone and we never would know when and where it is going to strike but. Due to this, Airgurus’ air ambulance services are always on a stand-by 24/7. We could be on a business trip, during vacation, driving, hiking with friends when an emergency strikes. Also, we could be anywhere far from a city or town in the Philippines where medical facilities are not adequate. Remember that the distance between our physical location and the nearest qualified hospital takes us to the golden hour. These are the hours that can mean life or death.
It is critical that we know our medical evacuation options in the Philippines. There are two types of medical evacuation in the country providing transport for urgent medical care situations:
1. Ground Ambulance (The medically suited-up, upgraded van)
Ground ambulances are most common in the Philippines especially in main town proper and cities. Yet, ground ambulances are often limited in range and availability. These factors make them often not practical for medical evacuation. Patients have the tendency to suffer from complications like seizures or heart attack leading to death while being stuck in traffic.
While it provides us some adequate help in the cities, ground ambulances are of limited help in remote areas.
2. Air Ambulance (The medically suited-up aircraft)
A lot of people are skeptical about using a helicopter or aircraft. The cost of getting an air ambulance is the first thing that comes into their mind. People don’t realize is that its a very effective emergency medical transport. And, that can reach us anywhere swiftly and take us to where we can get the medical care we need.
We often hear about or see air ambulances in televised news coverage. These involves remote vehicular accidents, mountain rescues, diving accidents, etc. We watch it all the time on TV or movies in war rescues and ambush situations. In action, we witness air ambulances transporting trauma patients to rooftops of hospitals. Another is, picking up patients from inaccessible places to waiting ground ambulances near medical facilities. Furthermore, we see repatriation of surviving victims from tragedies to trauma facilities, etc.

What is the most number of air ambulance Philippines case that we encounter most? Airgurus is saving thousands of patients via our air ambulance service in the Philippines.
Most of these cases we encounter entails the patients to be in the golden hours. It is the hours between life and death. What tops our list are patients with diseases of the heart.
Since we have posted the news last February 2012 in our old website, the numbers haven’t gone down and the Department of Health declared that heart disease is the leading cause of death in the Philippines till now.
We at Airgurus, can’t help but be concerned and so we are giving some friendly reminders to our followers on how to take care of your heart:
1. STOP SMOKING
Smoking or using tobacco is found to be one of the most significant risk factors for developing heart diseases. The chemicals in tobacco damages the heart and blood vessels leading to the narrowing of the arteries (atherosclerosis). Atherosclerosis can ultimately lead to a heart attack. When it comes to heart disease prevention, no amount of smoking is safe. Smokeless tobacco, low-tar and low-nicotine cigarettes are also risky, as is exposure to secondhand smoke. Social smokers are not even spared.
A new law has taken effect last month… Philippine Executive Order 26, entitled Providing for the Establishment of Smoke-Free Environments in Public and Enclosed Places. This was issued by Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte. This executive order invoked the Clean Air Act of 1999. The Tobacco Regulation Act of 2003 is to impose a nationwide ban on smoking in all public places in the Philippines. We hope that with this new law, it will significantly decrease the number of patients suffering from heart attacks.
2. EXERCISE FOR 30 MINUTES A DAY
A regular daily exercise can reduce the risk of fatal heart diseases. Combining physical activity with other lifestyle measures is always of great help. Physical activities help control one’s weight. It can reduce chances of developing other conditions that may put a strain in one’s heart, such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes. It also reduces stress which may be a factor in heart disease. Swimming is the best and the highly recommended activity on exercises.
3. EATING A HEARTY BUT HEALTHY DIET
Eating food that are low in fat, cholesterol and salt is a good start. Fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low-fat dairy products can help protect your heart. Beans, other low-fat sources of protein and certain type of fish also can help reduce risks of heart diseases. Limiting certain fats consumption also is important. Heart-healthy eating isn’t all about cutting back. Most people need to add more fruit and vegetables to their diet with a goal of 5 to 10 servings a day. So eat a lot of fruits and vegetables. On decreasing risks of heart attack, some fish like salmon and mackerel are good natural sources of Omega-3 fatty acid (a type of polyunsaturated fat).
When other means of transportation could endanger a patients health like if you have a health condition that requires this type of transportation, call Airgurus. Our 24/7 staff will be be able to assist you to deploy air ambulance services to nearest appropriate medical facility where you can be given the utmost care care you need.
