Useful!
I havent yet needed to use the app in a real-world situation but did witness its use the other day. Someone came into the ED and neither he nor his companions spoke more than a few words of English. The interpreter phone wasnt working and a hospital interpreter couldnt be there for another hour. And yes, this was an emergent situation. The resident pulled out Canopy and was able to get the information she needed to make the correct diagnosis.
I believe in this case the diagnosis could have been made without the app but it would have taken more and and more tests. Canopy helped direct the exam and got treatment started more quickly.
