The following case report details an in-flight medical emergency (IFME) that occurred during a trans-continental flight while the authors were en route to a medical conference. The report highlights the necessity for an improved approach to the prevention and management of IFMEs.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 11. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 September 2021.
All research outputs
#2,693,809
of 22,741,406 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Travel Medicine
#218
of 1,206 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#28,435
of 222,139 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Travel Medicine
#2
of 8 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,741,406 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 87th percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,206 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 24.3. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 222,139 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 8 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than 6 of them.
