The Intensive Care Station (ICS)
The ICS cabinets I, II and III are designed for easy installation and equipped with drawers to carry medical devices and miscellaneous equipment for optimal patient care. The drawers and telescope slides are made of aluminum, secured by latches and retainers. The cabinets are quick change attached by adjustable inserts and aircraft fittings to the standard aircraft provisions. Therefore no major modification to the aircraft is required.

The cabinets include recessed seat tracks to fasten the locker system FWD and AFT, medical equipment carrier and restraint system. It includes Guard tracks for easy stretcher – or incubator loading and unloading. The medical cabinets are easy to clean and disinfect. Between cabinets I and II and between II and III the medical waste bins, made of aluminum, are removable and secured by retainers.

The easy to operate Locker system for stretcher fastening FWD and AFT, constructed  of steel and aluminum, is adjustable and fitted by quick disconnect adapter and aircraft stud fittings to the recessed seat tracks at the top panels of the ICS cabinets I and III. The rotating base plate is locked in vertical position and can only be opened manually.

The Intensive Care Stretcher enables several positions for patient comfort. The back section adjusts from flat to sitting, and includes a head section extension. The modified back section adjustment enables each position to be fixed. It includes pins to fasten the stretcher to the locker system. The stable aluminum frame maintains the patient in a comfortable position. The four point restraint system is equipped with inertia reels for the shoulder belts and rotary buckle for quick release. The leg restraints have push button buckles. To secure the stretcher and patient during take-off, landing and turbulence an additional chest restraint with push button buckles which are fastened to the cabinet II are provided. For the patients comfort the sectional mattress is abrasion and fire resistant, bacteriostatic and resists blood or bodily fluids. The stretcher is easy to clean and disinfect. Typically the patient will be embarked with the head FWD.

The Medical Equipment Carrier is “quick change” attached by a quick track lock system to the medical cabinets. The panel contains holders, made of light weight aluminum for storage of medical devices, conveniently located within reach of the medical crew to perform their lifesaving work. The medical devices are secured in supports by retainers and easy removable for outside treatment. Additional accessories such as infusion holders and soft pocket storage are screw fitted to the medical carrier.  The visible installed oxygen lines have a keyed quick-connect to supply the oxygen flow meter and respirator.

 

Medical Power Distribution Unit (MPDU)
The medical devices are powered by internal battery packs for independent operation up to 4 hours. For charging of battery packs or operating of medical devices without batteries, a medical power distribution unit is installed at the medical equipment carrier. It distributes the 28 VDC / 14 VDC from the aircraft inverter and feeds the voltage to the outlet connectors. Each outlet connector is fused separately.

Electrical power is applied by an interconnection cable from the aircraft connector to the input jack located at the MPDU. Each output cable is shielded to minimize the electrical radiation from the medical devices. Recharging the battery packs of the medical devices during flight is possible.

System power consumption: max 20 A.
 

Oxygen / Air Station
The quick conversion Oxygen and Air supply system provides the advanced life support respiration and ventilation devices. Installation of one or two oxygen/air stations is possible. The supply system is located AFT of the ICS in the RH section of the cabin.

The oxygen/air station feeds max. 3,760 liters medical 0² from 4 x 4.7 liters (200 bar) or medical oxygen and air in Aluminum CFK cylinders. The constant line pressure of oxygen is 4.5 bar and  air 5.0 bar and is supplied by the pressure reducer.

Each oxygen/air station is designed to carry a maximum of four Aluminum CFK cylinders and may be configured depending upon the doctors calculation of patients requirements.
