AbstractDuring the last five years, we have had to fly 560 primary and 1150 secondary missions with the rescue helicopter of the Ulm Rescue Centre. This relationship of approximately 1 : 2 is distinctly different from the numbers obtained in other helicopter bases. The geographical location and structure of the hospitals within range of the Ulm rescue helicopter account for the large proportion of urgent secondary missions. The evaluation of these secondary missions concurs with the ADAC statistics and shows that the quick transport of the emergency doctor to the scene of the emergency, is only one component in the functions of the rescue helicopter. During primary and secondary missions, the ability to transport emergency patients to the nearest qualified hospital by helicopter, which is a mobile intensive care unit, is of equal importance. In the future, rescue helicopters will have to take these requirements into account by providing the necessary equipment and more especially, by providing sufficient space to carry out emergency diagnostic and therapeutic treatment.
