Dear Colleagues:
 
We are looking for a patient handout or definition of two medical terms
in Vietnamese:   hyperbilirubinemia and tachypnea.  
 
We have tried all of the web sites in Valerie Rankow's Foreign Language
Patient Information: Online Resources (revised 8/8/03)
with no success.  We have also tried a number of online
English-Vietnamese dictionaries that we found by Googling.
 
Does anyone have a suggestion of where we might look next?  The patient
is an infant whose parents are coming this afternoon for a consultation
with one our social workers, and they speak very little English.
 
Thanks in advance,   Penny
