Doctors use translation tools to treat Syrian patient at Jayadeva Institute

Doctors used translation tools to communicate with a Syrian patient at Jayadeva Institute, overcoming a significant language barrier to diagnose and treat her cardiac condition. The 65-year-old patient, who spoke only Arabic, required translation for her medical history and symptoms. Doctors successfully diagnosed severe triple-vessel coronary artery disease and a complete heart block. The patient underwent successful surgery and pacemaker implantation, receiving treatment free of cost thanks to donor agencies and the institute. She was discharged in stable condition.
