Der Telenotarzt als Innovation ist in diesem Bereich seit 2017 im Landkreis im Rahmen eines Projektes im Einsatz. Mittels einer Analyse realer Einsatzdaten sollte die avisierte Verbesserung der Notfallversorgung durch das Telenotarztsystem untersucht werden. Methodik Die Datenbasis stellen die Einsatzdaten aus dem Eigenbetrieb Rettungsdienst Greifswald dar und umfassen Informationen zu den Rettungswagen und Notarzteinsatzfahrzeugen. Diese Daten aus den Jahren 2016 und 2018 wurden bereinigt und gegenübergestellt. Anschließend erfolgte die Verknüpfung mit den Einsatzdaten des Telenotarztes aus dem Jahr 2018. Insbesondere wurden dabei die Einsatzhäufigkeiten und die Bindungsdauern des Personals Notarzt und Telenotarzt analysiert.

As in all European health care systems, German medical practitioners are in short supply whilst the demand for timely emergency medical care is constantly growing. In rural areas, this has led to critical delays in the provision of emergency medical care. In particular, in cases of cardiac arrest, time is of essence [1], because with each minute passing, the chance of survival with good neurological outcome decreases. OBJECTIVE The project follows four main objectives: 1) Reducing the therapy-free interval through widespread reinforcement of resuscitation skills and motivating the public to provide help (called bystander-CPR), (2) fast, professional first aid in addition to rescue services through alarming trained first aiders via smartphone, (3) faster and higher availability of emergency physicians through introducing the tele-emergency physician (TEP) system, and (4) enhanced emergency care through improving the cooperation between statutory health insurance on-call medical services (German: Kassenärztlicher Bereitschaftsdienst) and emergency medical services. METHODS The implementation of the project is evaluated through a tripartite prospective and intervention study: (1) in medical evaluation, the influences of various project measures on quality of care are assessed using multiple methods. (2) The economic evaluation mainly focuses on the valuation of inputs and outcomes of the different measures while considering various relevant indicators. (3) As part of the scientific work and organizational evaluation important work- and occupational-related parameters but also network and regional indexes are assessed. RESULTS The project was started in 2017 and enrollment will be completed in 2020. The pre-analysis phase recently finished. CONCLUSIONS Overall, the implementation of the project entails the realignment of emergency medicine in rural areas and the enhancement of quality of medical emergency care in the long-term. It is expected to lead to a measurable increase in medical laypersons’ individual motivation to provide resuscitation, to strengthen resuscitation skills as well as much more frequently provided first aid through medical laypersons. Furthermore, the project is intended to decrease the therapy-free interval in cases of cardiac arrest by dispatching first aiders via smartphones. As demonstrated by previous projects in urban regions, the TEP system has already proven a higher availability and quality of emergency call-outs in regular health care. A closer interrelation of emergency practices of statutory health insurance physicians with the rescue service is expected to lead to a better coordination of rescue and on-call services.
