Background: Pain remains a global health problem affecting all populations. There is limited knowledge, however, about the effect of limited English proficiency (LEP) on pain care and outcomes.
Aim: This systematic review determines the current state of pain research for LEP populations.
Article Synopsis
- InfoViz tools aim to improve pain communication for patients with limited English proficiency (LEP), specifically for Hmong individuals, addressing disparities in pain management.
- The study involved Hmong patients and interpreters in an iterative process to develop and refine pain infographics and assess their preferences for effective communication in clinical settings.
- Key findings showed that culturally relevant designs, organizational themes based on pain sensation and localization, and a preference for specific infographic styles led to a more effective pain assessment tool for these patients.
