Air Rescue at the Forefront of Modern Prehospital Care

Air rescue is one of the most innovative fields in emergency medicine. New medical procedures, specialized rescue techniques, and state-of-the-art aircraft are continually expanding the possibilities of prehospital care.

The workshop highlights current developments and challenges in air rescue—from the milestones of air rescue in Saxony to innovative concepts in prehospital resuscitation and the unique demands of complex winch rescues, both day and night. The program is complemented by additional expert presentations on current topics in modern air rescue.

Look forward to exciting insights, practical experiences, and the opportunity to exchange ideas with experts from DRF Luftrettung
