Following the systematic introduction of the emergency doctor system, problems arise at the interface between the ambulance service and the emergency department. Although patients arrive at the hospital quickly, the patient data must first be recorded there, which is time-consuming. As a result, treatment is often delayed. In order not to lose any time, we are developing the first European telematics emergency ambulance, from which patient data can be transmitted directly to the hospital by radio. Unfortunately, the successful trial had to be cancelled after six months because the German Federal Post Office only made the necessary radio frequencies available for six months.
