Advanced care provided by air ambulance teams is associated with higher survival rates for major trauma patients. Research has shown that more people survived than standard prognostic models predicted, including many with severe injuries and a low predicted chance of survival. The greatest benefit of the air ambulance service was found in younger patients and in those who responded better to the care provided during the first medical evaluation. During the observed period, the results of the treatment of patients with traumatic cardiac arrest continuously improved. These findings suggest that early intervention by specialist air rescue teams can significantly improve the chances of survival for critically injured patients.
