Video interpreting in emergency care study

This study tests different ways of providing language interpretation during breast cancer or gastrointestinal cancer visits at MSK. It aims to improve communication for patients who prefer Spanish or Mandarin and have limited English proficiency.

This study tests how communication delays affect anesthesia responses during medical emergencies and ultrasound-guided procedures. It may help identify ways to improve teamwork and safety in critical situations.

This study tests whether using your mobile phone's camera during an emergency call (dial 15 in France) can help doctors give better care when you have sudden difficulty breathing. It looks at how video might improve the quality of care compared to voice-only calls.

This study tests whether special connected glasses can help people in the intensive care unit who cannot speak. If you are an adult in the ICU, unable to talk for at least two days, but are awake and can use your hands, you may be eligible.

This study compares how well a video versus written text helps anesthesia trainees communicate clearly during a crisis. If you are an anesthesia resident or nurse anesthetist who used one of these supports and took part in simulation training, you may be eligible.

This study tests whether paramedics and emergency doctors can use a special video or phone link to improve care for children in emergencies. It compares the usual way doctors give advice to paramedics with a new telemedicine method.
