简要总结
Background: Global migration increases the likelihood of language barriers. In medical situations language barriers have a negative effect on quality of treatment and thus endanger patient safety.
In-hospital settings feasibility of video-translation has been demonstrated, yet there is lack of evidence in emergency trauma rooms. There, the physicians have to deal with time-critical decisions. Aims: This feasibility trial aims to investigate technical feasibility, usability as well as the impact on decision-making (e.g. alteration of treatment strategies). Methods: In this study 50 responsive patients with language barriers will be included. The anesthesiologic emergency physician will start video-translation via a tablet. Feasibility, quality of communication, usability as well as changes in diagnosis and treatment will be gathered and analyzed.

结局指标
主要结局
Technical Feasibility
时间窗: Directly after use of video-interpreting
Occurance of technical problems will be reported
Usability of video-interpreting
时间窗: Directly after use of video-interpreting
The usability will be evaluated afterwards by the anesthesiologic emergency physician using a questionnaire including following items on a 7-point Likert scale (strongly disagree to strongly agree): * Video-interpreting was easy to use. * I feel comfortable to use video-interpreting during the situation. * The amount of time involved to use video-interpreting has been fitting for me. * I would use video-interpreting again. * Video-interpreting was useful for my healthcare practice in this situation.
Impact on emergency physician's decisions
时间窗: Directly after use of video-interpreting
The impact of video-translation will be evaluated regarding alteration of medical history or treatment (yes/no)
