(OLYMPIA, WA – September 21, 2007), AirCare Solutions Group CEO Dr. Doug Mykol announced today the acquisition of an innovative new technology, which substantially enhances the training of individuals in recognizing the advance symptoms of hypoxia. This state-of-the-art training tool is a programmable altitude simulator, which offers individuals the opportunity to personally experience the subtle nature of hypoxia while in a safe and controlled environment without the potential risks of a decompression chamber. Related to aviation, hypoxia is caused by the inadequate oxygenation of the body through explosive, rapid or insidious decompression. Undetected through lack of awareness training, the exposure to hypoxia can seriously impair cognitive performance, which could and has led to catastrophic events.

This stand-alone new technology is fully integrated with computer software for setting altitude profile and physiological parameter safety cut-offs. A highlight is the touch screen cognitive testing and automated report generation showing the rapid and detrimental effect of hypoxia on cognitive performance. Upon completion, participants receive printed reports and a video CD that serves as a reminder of the individual symptoms experienced and dangers of hypoxia. As noted by Dr. Mykol, “This creative new training system is a response to the growing demand from those within aviation for personal, innovative instruction which will provide theoretical knowledge and practical experience in detecting the onset of hypoxia in advance of its ability to cripple the mind. Since 2005, AirCare Solutions Group has led the aviation training community by incorporating leading edge instruction into the curriculum of scheduled FACTS Training classes worldwide. With new Emergency Simulator units recently deployed in the United States plus expansion plans for Europe, the Middle East and Asia, the global scope of FACTS Training continues to respond to the industry call for progressive emergency procedures training.”

AirCare Solutions Group has assumed a role of providing leading edge change to the world of business aviation for over 25 years. Its mission is to further advance the safest operating environment possible through education, training and providing emergency products and services specific to business aviation.
