Summary

This study tests whether using a tablet for video interpreting helps emergency doctors talk with patients who don't speak the same language. 50 awake adults with language barriers will take part. Researchers will check if the technology works, how easy it is to use, and whether it changes the doctor's decisions about diagnosis or treatment.
