If a passenger is carrying liquid, gel or aerosol medications, a doctor's prescription or hospital certificate is required to exempt them, and the quantity of the medication is based on what the passenger needs on the plane, with no requirement for containers or plastic bags. Liquid medications must also be carried separately and certified to security personnel.
Expanded information:
1, cardiovascular patients: hypertensive patients with high blood pressure of more than 180 mm Hg, low pressure of more than 130 mm Hg; severe heart failure, myocarditis Within one month after the disease; within 30 days of frequent attacks of angina pectoris, severe arrhythmia; cerebrovascular accident within two weeks; 6 weeks after a myocardial infarction, regardless of comorbidities, are not suitable for air travel.
Patients after cardiac surgery are not suitable for even short flights within three weeks of surgery, as the stress of flying and low oxygen at high altitude may cause increased cardiac load.?
2, cerebrovascular disease patients: neurosurgery deputy chief physician Zhang Bo introduced, craniocerebral injury, skull fracture accompanied by coma or respiratory arrhythmia; inflammation of the brain, tumors, or within 30 days of brain hernia surgery; cerebral embolism, cerebral hemorrhage, brain tumors, intracranial aneurysms, the above patients theoretically less suitable for air travel. Patients after a cerebral embolism should wait at least 3 weeks before flying.?
3, digestive disease patients: upper gastrointestinal bleeding, acute appendicitis, peptic ulcer patients with very deep ulcers, as well as gastrointestinal bleeding patients bleeding stopped less than 3 weeks, it is best not to fly. Zhang Jianguo, director of the Department of Gastroenterology, suggested that patients who have undergone gastrointestinal surgery, generally more than 10 days after surgery before you can take the plane, so as to avoid gas expansion due to high altitude, the gastrointestinal tract in the gas expansion caused by gastrointestinal rupture.
4, several types of post-surgery patients: general surgery chief physician Rao Benqiang reminded, head surgery, ophthalmic surgery, ear, nose and throat surgery, gastrointestinal surgery within 15 days; thoracic and abdominal surgery less than 48 hours after surgery; due to encephalitis, tumors, brain hernia had surgery, less than 30 days, the above patients are best not to fly, so as not to change the pressure on the way, so that closed wounds are again torn as well as bleeding of blood vessels in the operation area.
5, severe anemia: director of hematology Dong Wenchuan explained, high in the air due to the inhalation of oxygen partial pressure is reduced, the human body tissues are prone to hypoxia. The American Institute of Aerospace Medicine formulated the "contraindications in air travel" stipulates that patients with hematocrit less than 6 grams / deciliter, if there is no close medical supervision, is strictly prohibited to fly.
6, suffering from upper respiratory tract infections and certain nasal diseases: otolaryngology director Liu youth analysis, the patient's nasal passages are poor, sinus openings are often blocked, not generally speaking, some of the following diseases are not recommended to take the plane, it is best to wait until after the danger period or choose other modes of travel such as high-speed rail.
Can adjust the balance of air pressure inside and outside the sinuses in time, the patient will feel pain in the sinus area. Patients with inflammation of the upper respiratory tract, the mucosal tissue around the pharyngeal orifice of the Eustachian tube is swollen, and the Eustachian tube is difficult to open, and the aircraft can not make the air flow when it rises or descends, which will lead to severe pain and damage to the middle ear and sinuses. In addition, patients with a severe cold before the flight it is best to prepare some nasal pass and other drugs, such as ephedrine and other vasoconstrictors.
7, drunkenness or narcotics and other drugs poisoning passengers are not suitable for air travel.?
8, orthopedic patients: Zhang Zhihai, deputy chief physician of spine surgery, said the fracture (tube-type plaster fixation, etc.), prosthetics (carbon dioxide cylinder drive), paralysis in the acute stage of the passenger is not suitable for air travel.
9, pregnant women with a tendency to habitual abortion or premature birth should not take the plane for a long time. Gynecology director Yu Liqun chief physician explained, early pregnancy during the relatively easy miscarriage, should not take the plane. 12 weeks to 32 weeks of pregnancy can travel by plane, need to carry a diagnostic certificate when traveling by plane. Those who are more than 32 weeks pregnant should not fly, as air travel may lead to preterm labor. If you are approaching your due date, you should not fly.
If you are suffering from a chronic illness or have recently suffered from a severe cold, acute gastroenteritis and other emergencies, it is best to consult with a medical professional before traveling by air, and carry the necessary medication according to the requirements of the medical staff to master the basic medical knowledge. Especially cardiovascular disease patients boarding should have emergency drugs, it is best to bring a blood pressure monitor, thermometer and other instruments to detect vital signs at any time.
Don't take an airplane in a fatigued state. When you buy a ticket, you may want to choose a large airplane. Airplanes take off, landing and other air pressure changes can be more activity jaw, do chewing, swallowing action, can regulate the air pressure changes in the body, to avoid excessive pressure on the internal organs.
You may want to drink more water during the flight, stand up every 30 minutes to stretch your upper and lower limbs, or leave your seat and walk around to promote blood circulation. If you are in the air and suddenly experience discomfort such as chest tightness and shortness of breath, you should seek help from the flight attendants to buy time for treatment.
