Ambulances to Get Virtual Doctors On Board

nomrniceguy writes "Researchers are developing technology for ambulances to improve communications and perhaps more importantly, place virtual doctors inside in transit. A patient's vital signs and other data are beamed in real-time to the closest trauma center, where doctors can not only instruct paramedics in the field, but also prep a room to treat the critically injured once they arrive."

Having them sitting in a room talking to (fully trained) ambulance crews is all we need.

They could be Indian or Chinese doctors and nurses. Communications are cheap these days
