Re: peds transport

["Tom Butler" <TButler@tulsatech.org>]

I would encourage you to look into FAR Part 135 which is the FAR that applies to this area.  I do agree that the safe tranportation of all of our patients should be a priority.  If a rule, regulation, or standard is set, there is nothing stating you can not go above that level to insure a safe environment for your patient.

As per CAMTS standards for safe transport of peds patients:

Standard 03.06.11 Part a reads
"Patients under 60 lbs (27 kg) shall be provided with an appropriately sized 
restraining device (for patient's height and weight) which is further 
secured by a locking device."

Of interest is also standard 03.06.11 Part b
"There must be some type of restraining device withing the isolette to 
protect the infant in the event of air turbulence or poor road conditions."
