SNAM-projektet (SAS Advanced Medical Air Transport Systems)

SAS Technical Services presents a new Turn-Key Air Ambulance solution, the SAS Advanced Medical Air Transport Systems (SAS AMAT Systems).

 

SAS Technical Services has developed and certified a flexible solution for providing advanced intensive-care capability in aircrafts and helicopters with no requirement for prior modifications to the aircraft.

 

Thanks to a modular design the SAS AMAT Systems can be individualized to meet the customer’s specific requirements ranging from high capacity Air Ambulance solutions, customized installations on commercial airliners and VIP aircrafts, MEDEVAC capability for military aircrafts to Air Ambulance Services aircrafts and helicopters.

 

With the SAS AMAT System the conversion of the aircraft or helicopter can be done in a very short time without the need for prior modifications of the aircraft. The fleet management advantages are obvious enabling a very flexible use of the aircraft and helicopter fleet.

 

The Mobile Intensive Care Unit (MICU) of the SAS AMAT System is designed to enable transport between different treatment facilities without having to switch between different stretcher systems and risking disruption in the life sustaining treatment. This can be achieved as the MICU provides a self sustained system with oxygen and electric power for its advanced medical instruments when not drawing power and oxygen from external sources. The design of the MICU also makes it suitable as an advanced emergency medical treatment unit, in environments were this is required.

 

SAS AMAT Systems has been delivered to the Swedish Civil Aviation Authority as the air ambulance solution for the Swedish National Air Medevac (SNAM) system. Six hours after call the SNAM-system provides a proven air worthy and patient safe environment for air transport of six intensive care patients, six stretcher patients and 23 walking wounded or relatives in a Boeing 737NG aircraft.
