Pre-Hospital Medicine: A Glimpse of the Future

Abstract

The availability and utilisation of technology in pre-hospital medicine has increased exponentially in the past half-century. New technologies, including telepresence, robotics and 3D printing, will revolutionise the way we practise in the 21st century. In order to maintain relevance and continue to provide exceptional patient care, we must stay abreast of technological advances, critically appraise new technologies, and be early adapters to change.
