Medevac off Porbandar

The 'Zeal' requested a medevac after a crew member suffered numbness in the lower body accompanied by very low pulse on July 21, 2024. The Indian Coast Guard took the ailing crew member off about 20 kilometers off the Porbandar coast by an Advanced Light Helicopter which was launched at first light under trying weather conditions. The helicopter, braving the high intensity winds, heavy rainfall and inclement weather, arrived at the 'Zeal' about 20 kilometers from Porbandar. The patient was then successfully evacuated using the rescue basket, and provided interim relief in the aircraft by ICG medical specialists after landing at Coast Guard Air Enclave, Porbandar. Once the condition of the patient was stable, he was handed over to the local agent for further medical management.
