Medevac Peak Season Starts Summer in The Philippines

Summer starts in March and is usually the beginning of Airgurus' peak season when it comes to Medevac operations in the Philippines. It doesn't end when summer ends though... Medevac peak season for us lasts  till the end of the year.




At the start of this month alone, we have flown to various parts of the country to secure a handful of minor airlifts and 5 major medical cases that needed urgent evacuation to Cebu and Manila hospitals ranging from heart attack / stroke, Aneurysm, diving accidents and neonatal cases. These are aside from the other services that Airgurus offers. Our priority however, is Air Ambulance and Medevac services.




Saving lives in the Philippines is never an easy matter for us. We make sure of our patient's wellness and flight safety in any weather condition. We work 24/7. We fly for medical emergencies anywhere in the archipelago, night and day.

Classified as an medical emergency requiring an Air Ambulance, Appendicitis is a condition characterized by the inflammation of the appendix that in most cases, requiring the removal of the inflamed appendix either by laparatomy or laparoscopy.



If appendicitis is untreated, mortality is high mainly because of the risk of rupture leading to peritonitis and shock.




Documenting the aforementioned case in real time... Airgurus' Air Ambulance Helicopter #1 took off at 1:55pm bound for Boracay Island to execute the medical evacuation of a man suffering from appendicitis.

As of writing (2:51pm of August 9, 2011), the Air Ambulance Helicopter # 1 is passing through waters nearby Mindoro Island estimated to arrive Boracay Island by 4pm after a short refuel stop at Caticlan.



The patient's attending physician in Boracay Island contacted Airgurus for his immediate medical transfer to St. Lukes' Global City, Taguig to be endorsed to a specialist, Dr. Dela Pena at an expected time of 6pm.
