Medevac off Galveston

The US Coast Guard medevaced a woman from the Ädventure of the Seas' about 25 miles off Galveston, Texas on Jan 9, 2023. Coast Guard Sector Houston-Galveston watchstanders received a medevac request at 5 p.m. from the cruise ship, stating a 51-year-old passenger was experiencing lower abdominal pain and reportedly suffering from possible appendicitis. Watchstanders consulted with the duty flight surgeon, who recommended a medevac. A Coast Guard Air Station Houston MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew diverted to conduct the medevac. The helicopter crew landed on the ship, took the ailing passenger aboard and transported her to the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston. The patient was reportedly in stable condition.
