For emergency response: Onboard emergency medical equipment can provide timely and effective first-aid measures to prevent or minimize injuries to passengers and crew when encountering unexpected situations (e.g., cardiac arrest, sudden illness, etc.).
For monitoring and preventing infectious diseases: Onboard emergency medical equipment needs to not only respond to common emergency conditions, but also be equipped with reliable infectious disease prevention devices (e.g., masks, gloves, disinfectants, etc.) to ensure that the risk of spreading diseases is controlled as much as possible on board the aircraft.
Foundational support for the provision of medical services: With the rapid growth of air travel and business travel, more and more people are taking long international and domestic flights on a regular basis. Therefore, well-equipped onboard emergency medical equipment can provide basic medical services to passengers and staff, addressing their needs when they feel unwell or need routine medication on board.
In summary, onboard emergency medical equipment is important for responding to emergencies, preventing the spread of infectious diseases, and providing primary medical care to passengers and staff. It is important to note that this equipment must be formally tested and regularly maintained to ensure that it can function properly at all times.
