These data show that the probable causes of fatal air medical accidents are primarily human factors and are, therefore, likely preventable. Developing a safety-first culture with a focus on human factors training has been shown to improve outcomes across a wide range of medical specialties (eg, anesthesia, surgery, and resuscitation). While there have been fewer fatal accidents in recent years, a continued emphasis on various training modalities seems warranted.
