It took roughly two hours to retrieve your equipment from your campsite and load Mat onto the ATV trailer. You were able to get cell service along the road and contact the Sheriff’s office. The Sheriff arranged helicopter transport for Mat from a large clearing a few miles from the accident site. Around four hours after the accident, a military helicopter lands to transport Mat. There are no medics onboard but the chopper does have a first aid kit. Looking through their equipment you find military dressings, bandaging and splinting material, and an AED. The crew requests that you accompany Mat during the transport to provide continued medical support en route. Another set of vital signs taken at the helicopter before takeoff reveals a substantial increase in Mat’s pulse and respiratory rates; his pulse is now 156 and regular and his respiratory rate is 28 and easy. Twenty minutes into the flight, Mat becomes unresponsive and arrests. Anticipated total flight time is 2.5 hours. What should you do? Bookmark this question Choose one answer.
