xprompt™ - multilingual assistance

xprompt™ is simple, trustable and enables faster communication. Phrases are carefully grouped into themes and sections, with tailored menus for care staff and patient. xprompt™ provides 800 phrases in total for each language pack that can be freely combined.

The phrases are translated into the text of the target language, together with a voice output for spoken languages or a video sequence if sign language is selected. The partner can respond by changing into his/her language mode, and choosing a response phrase. Thereby the iPad is used by both parties.

Care staff and patient have their own, separate menu of phrases

	Care staff		Patient
	Gestures		Gestures
	Medical history		My answers
	Examinations and procedures		My questions
	Care routine		My needs
	Supporting communication		My complaints
	Instructions		Manners
	Dictionary		Dictionary

The phrase logging feature can be enabled, to record and list each carestaff-patient interaction within xprompt. The phrases of logged dialogues can optionally be sent via email.

xprompt™ is expanding: Currently over 20 languages (including 2 sign languages) are available for download from within the app, for a small surcharge. Further 30 languages are planned for release. Any two languages can be combined, resulting in equal-rights medical communication around the world.

Quality

In this international project, around 130 people from 50 countries have collaborated and continue to support xprompt™ with their competence. All translators have translated phrases into their native language, have a medical education, and the quality of their translations have been checked. Notwithstanding, minor errors cannot be ruled out.

xprompt™ cannot, and does not intend to replace
professional interpreters. For complex dialogs, an interpreter is required, especially in situations where the patient's health, body or life is in danger.
