I love your videos especially the photo inserts such as the Drs laughing and the seven helicopters to emphasize over-medivacing! Ps you make me think and I found that water 'landings' are the common verbage while 'alighting' on water is also used. Cheers.

Thanks for posting. Interventional Cardiologist on a cruise now. Was wondering about logistics of a medical evacuation.

How much is a coast guard evacuation by the US or French or Australian coast guards ? is it covered by the cruise line or by the patient's insurance ?

The coast guards do not charge for helicopter evacuations. It falls under search and rescue missions. If a cruise ship doctor or nurse has to go with the patient, or a jet ambulance is needed on land, then the patient's travel insurance will pay for it.

What would happen if a passenger with a non-communicable but acute life-threatening condition (e.g. an MI) refuses a doctor-recommended helicopter evacuation? Can the captain order an evacuation against the patient's will, order the patient to be dis-embarked at the next port of call, or let the patient continue on the cruise at their own risk?

Great question. Will make a video about this as there are many layers to this question. The captain cannot order a medical evacuation, only the doctors can; or the nurses if there are no doctors on board. If a passenger has an active DNR order, the patient's wish will be respected.

Does ultrasound work on a ship given the background vibration?

@deck4forward Жыл бұрын
Yes ultrasounds work fine on cruise ships. Unfortunately (and disappointingly) 90% of cruise lines refuse to buy ultrasounds for their medical centers. One has to bring his own portable u/s.

Isn’t that why every cruise they load 4 coffins as the likelihood of death is ever present

Cruise ships do not load any coffins on board 😅 Every cruise ship has mortuary fridges in the medical center for three bodies or more.
