Summary

This study was designed to see if using a video interpreter on a tablet helps doctors in emergency trauma rooms treat patients who don't speak the same language. The plan was to include 50 awake adults with language barriers and measure how well the technology worked and whether it changed medical decisions. However, the trial was withdrawn before any participants were enrolled.
