Application of tele-ultrasound in medical emergency services

Abstract

This study aims to add tele-ultrasound techniques and emergency physician support to improve the quality of pre-hospital medical emergency services. On the other hand, a diagnostically useful FAST scan is dependent on the skill level of the EMTs using the portable ultrasound unit. However, providing adequate tools is still a prerequisite to the successful execution of a job. In the future, an improved system interface and standardized training protocols in the EMT training program should overcome any deficit in EMT skill level while using the portable ultrasound scanner.
