今日iphoneのTranslator (通訳アプリ)は大活躍!
日本語の全くできなく中国語しか話せない患者が来院。病歴のところか症状さえわからなかった。
旅行用に準備した通訳アプリをふーと思い出した。
診療に応用してみるとなかなか優れているのが
実感できました。
患者さんもドクターもニコニコ。。。。
My iphone Translator made her surprise debute today!
A Chinese patient visited us this morning. She spoke no Japanese, only Mandarin. I didn't know what exactly she was trying to tell me, only could guess that she was itching with rashes which she pointed with her finger.
Suddenly I recalled that I had download a Translator into my i phone for use in my coming oversea trip.
Using that we could converse and she began to smile and felt relaxed that she was understood.
She was happy...and so was the doc!!
What a wonderful app!! try it!
