During an in-flight emergency where the aircraft experiences a sudden loss of cabin pressure, what is the most appropriate immediate action for the clinical crew?
Reassure the patients about the situation
Ascertain the cause of the loss of pressure
Deploy supplemental oxygen
Communicate with ground control about the situation
In the event of a sudden loss of cabin pressure, deploying supplemental oxygen is crucial to ensure adequate oxygenation of both crew and patients. Without supplemental oxygen, hypoxia can occur rapidly at higher altitudes, leading to impaired decision-making and physiological distress.
