Medical Fitness For Air Travel
To ensure your safety and well-being during air travel, especially for patients with pre-existing respiratory conditions, PulmoCare Center @Sodepur conducts a comprehensive series of clinical examinations. These rigorous evaluations enable our specialists to assess your pulmonary fitness to fly and issue verified medical clearance.
Detailed pulmonary function testing to measure baseline lung volume, airflow rates, and airway resistance under pressurized cabin simulation.
Continuous pulse oximetry monitoring at rest and during a 6-minute walk test to evaluate peripheral oxygen saturation and exertion limits.
Precise evaluation of partial pressures of oxygen (PaO2), carbon dioxide (PaCO2), and arterial pH for moderate to severe pulmonary disorders.
Recent thoracic imaging review to rule out active pneumothorax, bullous disease, active infections, or acute pulmonary parenchymal changes.
Simulated in-flight atmospheric conditions (breathing 15% O2) to identify patients at risk of in-cabin hypoxia and calculate in-flight flow rates.
Expert evaluation by our chest physician with completed airline MEDIF medical clearance documents and supplemental oxygen prescription.
Airlines typically require fitness certificates issued within 7–14 days of travel. Book your clinical appointment at PulmoCare Center @Sodepur to complete all diagnostic tests smoothly.
