Recently, a 75-year-old passenger on Tianjin Airlines flight GS6545 suddenly suffered from heart failure. At the moment of emergency, the cabin crew immediately activated the emergency handling procedure and launched a high-altitude rescue, which finally successfully rescued the passengers and took care of the elderly to arrive at the destination safely.

It is understood that during the flight attendant's cabin patrol on the same day, a passenger hurriedly found the flight attendant, saying that there was an elderly person in the 23rd row who had a sudden heart attack and was in critical condition, asking for help. When the flight attendant rushed to the old man's side, he found that the old man was already weak in consciousness, pale, and weak, and the situation was very urgent. After asking the family, the old man suffered from serious heart disease and had taken a quick-acting heart-saving pill, and then the flight attendant helped the old man to lay the backrest of the seat flat while comforting the family, unbuttoned the old man's collar and prepared to rescue.

At the same time, in order to provide safer and more effective assistance to passengers, the flight crew immediately searched for a doctor through the broadcast, and a chief doctor of the Hainan Provincial People's Hospital in the cabin took the initiative to contact the flight attendant, showed the relevant documents and joined the emergency. At the same time, the purser will report the relevant situation to the captain and obtain the consent of the captain, and immediately provide emergency medical kits to passengers. The captain told the crew: the safety of the passenger's life is the first, please communicate the situation of the elderly at any time, if the elderly are in critical condition, to ensure that they arrive at the nearest diversion site within 30 minutes.

Through the doctor's preliminary diagnosis, it is confirmed that the patient's blood pressure is low and the heart rate is too fast, and it is recommended to give oxygen to the passenger. After continuous oxygen inhalation and drug action, the old man's face gradually eased, the symptoms were slowly alleviated, the consciousness gradually became clear, and everyone at the scene breathed a sigh of relief. During the subsequent flight, the purser arranged for a flight attendant to accompany the elderly and continue to pay attention to the situation of the elderly until the plane landed on time.
