Stroke Suspected Patient Urgently Transported from Chuja Island, Jeju

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Hwang Jeongpil] At around 10:30 a.m. on the 2nd, a suspected stroke emergency patient occurred on Chuja Island, Jeju, and was urgently transported by helicopter.

According to the Jeju Regional Maritime Police Agency on that day, Mr. Oh (male, 71 years old, resident of Chuja) visited the Chuja Health Center due to persistent dizziness and vomiting symptoms.

The patient's condition included symptoms such as high blood pressure, headache, dizziness, vomiting, and gradually decreasing consciousness. Although intravenous fluids were administered, the condition did not improve, so a 119 emergency call was made on suspicion of stroke, and urgent transport was requested from the Jeju Maritime Police.

Upon receiving the report, the Jeju Maritime Police promptly dispatched a helicopter and urgently transported the patient from Chuja Island to a nearby hospital in Jeju City.

Meanwhile, the Jeju Regional Maritime Police Agency has urgently transported 108 emergency patients this year using vessels and aircraft in island areas and at sea.
