Rapid-response ICU air ambulance for stroke, brain haemorrhage, spinal cord injury and neuro-critical patients from Dhaka to Bumrungrad International Hospital Bangkok — doctor-led, fully monitored and available 24/7.
What is a stroke and neurology emergency evacuation? A dedicated ICU air ambulance that transfers stroke and neuro-critical patients from Dhaka to Bangkok under continuous specialist care. The aircraft carries a neuro-capable ventilator, multi-parameter monitor, ICP monitoring, and a full neurological emergency drug box, staffed by a flight doctor experienced in neuro-critical care. Costs vary by aircraft, crew and equipment — see our air ambulance cost guide. Patients are treated at Bumrungrad International Hospital in Bangkok. This service requires the full ICU air ambulance package and takes approximately 3–5 hours end-to-end via our coordinated transfer process.
In stroke and neurological emergencies, every minute counts. When a patient suffers an ischaemic stroke, haemorrhagic stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord compression or status epilepticus, the difference between recovery and permanent disability often depends on how quickly they reach a comprehensive neuroscience centre — and what level of care they receive during the journey.
Our transport ventilator supports neuro-protective ventilation strategies — maintaining precise PaCO₂ targets to avoid secondary brain injury. The multi-parameter monitor provides continuous end-tidal CO₂, SpO₂, ECG and invasive blood pressure. For selected cases we can carry intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring equipment, allowing the flight doctor to manage cerebral perfusion pressure throughout the transfer.
Our drug formulary includes thrombolytics, anticonvulsants, mannitol, antihypertensives, sedation and reversal agents — everything needed to manage a deteriorating neurological patient at altitude. The flight doctor can administer tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) en route if the therapeutic window allows, or manage raised intracranial pressure until the patient reaches Bumrungrad's neurosurgical team.
We coordinate every neurological transfer with Bumrungrad International Hospital's Neuroscience Centre in Bangkok. Their 24/7 stroke team, interventional neuroradiologists, neurosurgeons and neuro-ICU are pre-alerted before departure, enabling immediate CT/MRI imaging, thrombectomy or surgical intervention the moment the patient arrives.
From the ICU bed in Dhaka to the neuro-ICU at Bumrungrad, the patient remains under continuous neurological monitoring. Ground ambulance collection, rampside transfer, ICU flight and final ground leg — all managed by our team with zero handoff gaps. The flight doctor provides a complete clinical handover to the receiving neurologist.
A stroke emergency air ambulance is a dedicated ICU charter jet specifically configured to manage neurological patients during transfer from Dhaka to Bangkok. The cabin is equipped with neuro-protective ventilation, continuous multi-parameter monitoring, ICP monitoring capability and a comprehensive neurological drug formulary. The medical team includes a flight doctor trained in neuro-critical care. This service is designed for patients with acute ischaemic or haemorrhagic stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, brain tumours, status epilepticus and other neurological emergencies requiring urgent care at Bumrungrad International Hospital.
Cost depends on aircraft type, crew composition, equipment needs (such as ICP monitoring), and urgency. We provide transparent, itemised quotes after reviewing the patient's neurological reports. Visit our air ambulance cost page for a detailed breakdown of pricing factors for neuro-critical transfers.
All our neurology emergency patients are transferred to Bumrungrad International Hospital in Bangkok, which houses a dedicated Neuroscience Centre offering 24/7 stroke care, interventional neuroradiology, neurosurgery, and neuro-intensive care. Learn more on our Bangkok hospitals page.
Our neurology air ambulance includes: transport ventilator with neuro-protective modes, 5-lead ECG/ST-segment monitor, capnography, invasive and non-invasive blood pressure monitoring, ICP monitoring (on request), infusion/syringe pumps, blood gas analyser capability, and a comprehensive neurological emergency drug box including thrombolytics, anticonvulsants, mannitol and sedation.
The full package includes: ground ambulance in Dhaka and Bangkok, dedicated charter aircraft, flight doctor and critical-care paramedic with neuro experience, all neurological monitoring and life-support equipment, permits and landing clearances, medical visa support, and direct coordination with Bumrungrad's neuroscience team.
