AEROMEDICAL Questions with 100%
Correct Answers
Baroitis Media Correct Answer: Blocked ears
Barosinusitis Correct Answer: More prevalent on descent,
blocked sinus'
trapped gas in frontal skull and jaw regions due to inflammation
LEANS Correct Answer: Where the pilot will tilt wings to fly at which they percieve
to be the vertical axis
Coriolis Illusion Correct Answer: Combination of visual, ear and propriceptive
distubrance resulting in vertigo and complete loss of motion
Barodontalgia Correct Answer: Acute tooth-ache caused by air being trapped
in a tooth or under a restoration when the patient is at a high altitude of 8,000
feet or more
During ascent, severe jaw/tooth pain
Barobariotrauma Correct Answer: The release of nitrogren into the blood stream
from excess adipose tissue due to cel rupturing at pressure changes.
Fat emboli: severe dyspnea, petchiae neck auxilla and shoulder, chets pain,
pallor, tachycardia
Preventing Barbariotrauma Correct Answer: place patients on 100% O2 for 15
mins prior to flight.
Dysbarism Correct Answer: Decompression sickness
, a medical condition that results from pressure changes that occur when a
person descends in water or ascends in altitude
Rapid descent allows for nitrogen bubbles to form in microcirculation leading to
tissue ischemia- damage
Preventing Dysbarism Correct Answer: remain below 8000 ft for minimum 12
hours.
FOD Correct Answer: Foreign body digestion, suseptible within 200ft, when
objects end up into the engine.
DISC Correct Answer: When Rotors are in motion
Pushback Correct Answer: Fixed wing: when you physclaly need to be pushed
back from the terminal, during 'taxi' or 'pushback' all chatter should be reduced
Authority/ chain of command Correct Answer: VP operations
Director of flight op
Chief pilot
Senior EMS check pilot ( if commercial or freight)
Duty captain - captain flying that day
First officer
Medical cabin attendant
EXIS Correct Answer: emergency exit identification system
