Abstract: Abstract German emergency medical services are in need of new solutions to their care system in order to cope with raising mission numbers and a reduction of available physicians for emergency care. As countermeasure to this development the research project TemRas investigates the introduction of a Telematic Rescue Assistance System. Supported by this system, physicians located in a teleconsultation center advise multiple paramedics teams during their emergency missions. Usage of this system must be unobtrusive for the supported paramedics in order to enable optimal patient care. The proposed software architecture addresses this by enabling a seamless integration of existing medical devices and their communication protocols for real-time data transmission between emergency scene and teleconsultation center. To ease the integration of the resulting heterogeneous application infrastructure in the teleconsultation center, a message bus is introduced which provides a qualified integration point for such environments.
