N2  - We reported the "Doctor-Heli" (medical service helicopter) system at the center of emergency and critical care medicine at Tokai University Hospital. From October 1999 to March 2001, the service had transported 485 patients, shortening the time to critical care and improving patient-prognosis. We report a case of cervical and laryngeal trauma occurring during a suicide attempt successfully treated thanks to the rapid start of critical care enabled by use of the helicopter. The service has proven its utility in otolaryngology and head and neck surgery.<p /> <p>Language: ja</p>
