Communicating in Emergency Settings: BabelDr or Telephone Interpreting? Passed

Wednesday May 24, 2023 09:30 - 09:35 G3

Lecturer: Céline De Graaf

Track: MIE: Knowledge and Information representation and modeling

We present a study comparing two mediums that can be used to communicate with allophone patients: a speech-enabled phraselator (BabelDr) and telephone interpreting. To identify the satisfaction provided by these mediums, their pros and cons, and the situations in which one was preferred over the other, we conducted a crossover experiment where doctors and standardized patients completed anamneses and filled in surveys.
