arpadi - Multilingual Doctor-Patient Dialogue Assistant
Posted by Darius Wey in "SOFTWARE" @ 09:00 AM
"When the doctor and patient don't speak the same language, the quality of medical care is jeopardized - language barriers hamper diagnosis and adversely affect the success of treatment! arpadi® was developed for just this reason: as a mobile interpreter for Palm OS and Pocket PC, arpadi® enables medically sound, instantaneous communication between doctors and patients of different language affiliations."
Cultural and linguistic diversity (CALD) is always an important topic in medicine, and 'arpadi' aims to solve some of the issues associated with it. With a database of over 400 clinical formulations and questions, 'arpadi' has the ability to read them back in 13 different languages. For those interested, a 14-day trial version is available from the site.
