“Communication and Teamwork During Telemedicine-Enabled Stroke Care in an Ambulance”
About: This study aimed to investigate the communication and teamwork between a neurologist at the hospital, a nurse at the emergency department and the paramedics in the ambulance during a telestroke session in the ambulance. The ambulance was equipped with video cameras and speakers making it possible for the three professions to communicate verbally and non-verbally.

“Prehospital Telemedical Emergency Management of Severely Injured Trauma Patients”
About: By identifying articles regarding prehospital trauma care and telemedicin 15 records were found. From this it was concluded that telemedical assistance via real-time telemetry systems, enabling video and audio conferencing between EMS staff and tele-emergency physicians, were associated with a higher treatment quality and a shorter time-to-treatment in invasive procedures.
