We found that after traumatic injury language minorities experience increased mortality (controlling for patient demographics, mechanism of injury, etc) and hope this work serves as a call to action to do better for our non-English speaking patients #interpreterssavelives.
@MariaRoseCastro finds that following traumatic injury, non-English language preferred patients experience increased hospital LOS & in some cases even mortality - work to be done to provide trauma care to vulnerable populations . @hopeschwartzy @Jasosamd
