Background: Pre-hospital care plays a critical role in improving patient outcomes during emergencies. With technological advances, integrating telemedicine and artificial intelligence (AI) into paramedic services has the potential to transform how emergency services are delivered. Methods: This systematic review followed PRISMA guidelines. A comprehensive search was conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and IEEE Xplore for studies published between 2016 and 2024. Eligible studies assessed the use of telemedicine and/or AI by paramedics in pre-hospital settings.
