Thanks to @AMPAflightdocs and all our collaborators across the country. If you care for patients in the air or on wheels, this work is for you. 📄 Read the full article: #CCTM @UCAirCareDoc @HawkmoonHEMS @DrewCathers @NAEMSP @AAMS @cbatesmd @jasumback.

We also identified critical knowledge gapsand barriers—like lack of predictive tools, medicolegal fears, and poor info sharing between programs. 🚧 This field needs a national registry and more research.

Key best practices include:.✔️ Treat underlying causes (pain, hypoxia, etc.).💉 Ketamine as first-line for rapid sedation.🧾 Standardized post-sedation plans.🧰 Access to meds + airway tools.👩‍⚕️ Specific crew training.

This is the first consensus guideline focused on agitation management specific to the transport environment—especially air medical. We tackle the unique risks, including catastrophic outcomes if agitation escalates mid-flight. @laertezz @TschautscherMD @LawnerBen.

🚨 Just published!. Our AMPS Lite team’s consensus statement on managing the agitated patient who presents a threat to safe transport (TST) in Critical Care Transport Medicine (CCTM) is now available in Air Medical Journal. 📄
