    AbstractTelemedicine has already entered the rescue service in some regions of Germany. This case description is about a telemedical emergency physician case where an emergency doctor was also at the scene of the emergency. The patient had a life-threatening ventricular tachycardia and became hemodynamically unstable. The emergency physician was still inexperienced and overwhelmed by the complex situation. She decided to contact the tele-emergency medical services (tele-ems) and could then be instructed to perform intraosseous access, drug treatment and electrical cardioversion in the unstable patient. The cooperation with the tele-ems physician enabled the still inexperienced emergency physician to perform a guideline-compliant treatment and to transport the stabilized patient to the hospital in a timely manner.
