Temperature Monitoring in Prehospital Emergency Medical Vehicles – An Observational Study

Temperatures inside the vehicles and aircraft frequently exceed recommended limits for environmental temperatures. Indoor RRV storage provides some protection from extreme temperatures, particularly mitigating against low temperatures. The AW169 aircraft demonstrated the poorest overall temperature control. These results can be used to guide effective storage protocols and climate control strategies to ensure the integrity of therapeutic products.

Abstract

Temperatures inside the vehicles and aircraft frequently exceed recommended limits for environmental temperatures. Indoor RRV storage provides some protection from extreme temperatures, particularly mitigating against low temperatures. The AW169 aircraft demonstrated the poorest overall temperature control. These results can be used to guide effective storage protocols and climate control strategies to ensure the integrity of therapeutic products.
