In a recent MedLink consultation, a flight crew from Germany requested advice regarding a pregnant passenger. A pressurization issue required the cabin altitude to be increased to 9,500 feet, raising safety concerns for the passenger in her second trimester.
A MedLink doctor advised that this cabin altitude should be safe for about an hour. The doctor recommended providing low-flow oxygen to ensure the passenger's comfort further and mitigate any concerns.
This incident highlights MedAire's commitment to delivering expert medical assistance, ensuring passenger safety and reassurance even during atypical flight situations.
