Abstract
Description
Desde que la humanidad domina los cielos se ha vuelto cada vez más importante entender los efectos de la altitud, la disminución en la presión de los gases y las fuerzas de aceleración en el cuerpo humano. Volar produce una demanda de adaptación fisiológica que para personas en buenas condiciones de salud y bajo situaciones operacionales normales no presentan problemas tales como la hipoxia, el barotraumatismo, la descompresión y la hipotermia.
El objetivo de esta revision es decribir los diferentes alteraciones y cambios fisiologicos que suceden durante el transporte aereo de pacientes al igual que su relacion con la atmosfera y las leyes físicas que la rigen.
Palabras clave: Presion atmosferica. Barotrauma. Enfermedad de descompresion. Transporte pacientes.
Ever since the humanity dominates skies, it has become more and more important, to understand the effects of the altitude, the diminution in the pressure of gases, the acceleration forces in the human body. To fly produces a demand of physiological adaptation, that stops people in good conditions of health and under normal operational situations they do not present/display problems such as the hypoxia, the barotraumatismo, the decompression and hypothermia. The aim of this review is to describe the various disturbances and physiological changes that occur during air transport of patients as well as its relationship with the atmosphere and the physical laws that govern it. Keywords: Atmospheric pressure. Barotrauma. Decompression Disease. Patient's transport.
