AbstractModern warfare has generated a significant increase in blast injuries, which demand careful management during planning and while undertaking air transfer. Pain management following multiple injuries can be challenging even when a patient is cared for in a stationary health care setting; this is further complicated by the additional stressors of flight. This article describes health care governance initiatives implemented by the Aeromedical Evacuation Squadron, based at Royal Air Force (RAF), United Kingdom. It focuses on quality and performance improvements via a program of clinical-effectiveness auditing.Copyright (c) 2010. Published by Elsevier Inc.
