Data Charting and Analysis
Data was extracted from papers that met eligibility criteria by two
independent reviewers (S.C. and J.Y.L.) using a data extraction template
developed on Covidence. 28 The following data was
extracted: author(s), year of publication, study location, methodology
and methods, language(s) of concern, study populations, aims of the
study, important relevant results. Extracted data was entered into a
charting form developed in Covidence. Both the first and the second
authors validated the charted data. A thematic analysis of the following
outcomes was compiled by both reviewers: the current landscape of
medical student interpretation, the interpretation training programs
developed for medical students, the advantages and disadvantages of
medical student interpretation, and the legal and ethical implications.
