Objective:
To discuss the experience of establishment of a mobile intensive care unit (ICU) for emergency treatment following astronaut flight, disaster, and regional war.
Methods:
The data from both foreign and our countries as well as our own clinical experience of first-aid were reviewed, and a mobile ICU was established, including the equipment, supply of drugs, training, and organization.
Results:
The mobile ICU was set up at the site of landing of the first Chinese astronaut, and proved to be efficient. The new model could be expected to be prompt in first-aid for casualties in disasters and warfare.
Conclusion:
The first-aid on spot of casualties might reduce the rates of invalidity and mortality during disasters and regional war.
