Summary

This study tested a robot named DAISY that helps patients check themselves into the emergency room. Instead of waiting for a nurse, patients answer questions on a touchscreen and use devices like a blood pressure cuff. The goal was to see if the robot could save staff time and give doctors useful information. 156 adults took part, and researchers measured how long the process took and how patients felt about using the robot.
