How To Implement The Dragon Medical Voice Recognition System

Electronic Health Systems are equipped with many features that are designed to reduce medical errors and help navigate patients through the healthcare system. One system that is worth looking at is the MedicsDocAssistant™ (MDA™). MDA™ supports many features such as alerts (“MedicsDocAssistant,”). Alerts will pop up on a provider’s screen letting them know that there is something wrong with the patient’s care. Alerts can range from prescription alerts, warning physicians of potential adverse drug effects or allergy complications, to alerts pertaining to clinical decisions regarding patient examinations, procedures and screenings that may be crucial. For example, the system will alert to the physician to remind female patients of a certain age to schedule a mammogram screening. The objectives of these alerts are to aid in properly diagnosing patients, identifying gaps in care, running appropriate tests as well as improving patient outcomes (“How EHR Alerts,” 2012).

Many health care facilities are already starting to use an electronic health record in some of their departments. An electronic health record is a system that allows health care employees to input patient information into a computer system and saves that information into a database for the facility. The information that is being stored directly into the computer system is patients’ personal information (name, date of birth, address, emergency contact information, insurance information, and primary care physician and/or admitting physician), medical history, allergies, current medications, nurses and doctors’ notes, and other information that may pertain to the reason for the visit. Radiology and lab results are also saved into the electronic health record. Even though some health care facilities use a computer system to save some information, there may also be paper work that is also being used. This paper work is scanned into the facilities database so that it can also be saved and viewed if necessary.

The pharmacists will program it to make a sound according to the patient’s prescription. My family and friends inspired this solution when I saw them struggling to remember to take their medicine. I witnessed how they have so many things on their minds that they do not worry about their health which is why I decided to make a change in people’s lives and create this device to help them facilitate the treatment of their condition. Although creating and producing this device can take time and money, I know it is not impossible. However, William Bosl stated that “integrating new solutions with existing electronic health records (EHR) systems require customization within each organization, which is difficult because of the monolithic software design of most EHR products” causing a big problem to find a solution for another problem. One of the programs that will be used to create the software for this device will be Do-More Designer 1.1; this program will be used to design a prototype of the watch or device and to create the operating

We are committed to doing everything we can to assist our patients. Once e-stim technology is affordable, the next step is education. Not only are there patients who are unaware of this technology, but there are also speech pathologists who are unequipped to operate it. This program will offer courses for speech pathologists to learn the proper techniques for handling electronic stimulators. E-stim certification is an additional cost that we will cover because we take pride in the competency of our employees. These courses will meet twice a week on our property. Our teaching staff will consist of only board certified individuals. The course will be similar to CPR classes in structure. A lecture component will cover

Writing may seem like a trivial task for someone in the communications industry. Transferring all the intricate thoughts that the human mind can generate in a short amount of time is the goal many strive to achieve. Numerous corrections and countless revisions lead to a finished piece that accurately tells another human what could otherwise get locked deep in the mind. But, how does this apply to a physician? The physician can be a skilled leader and an expert at dealing with individuals, but if that quality and information are not accurately relayed in charts or writing, the health of the patient and their families can get jeopardized. Apart from the rigorous training and daunting certification and licensure examinations, the physicians are required to participate in a monologue with the computer. In other words, the electronic health record (EHR) seems to be demanding significant time and attention from the physician.

Medtronic provides data transmission via Commander Flex with peripherals and a computer modem, interactive voice response (IVR), and NetResponse. Commander Flex is a small device that has a liquid crystal display (LCD) with voice and visual stimuli allowing the patients to be interactive via taking vital signs and answering questions about disease symptoms (Medtronic, 2017). The Commander Flex can operate via telephone landline, cellular, or broadband networks (Medtronic, 2017). The IVR system is telephonic that allows for the patient to call in data using a traditional telephone or cellphone (Medtronic, 2017). NetResponse is a web-based application software available on smartphones, tablets, or personal computers allowing the patient to submit information by logging on the website (Medtronic, 2017). The software, Omnivisor Pro, interfaces with the VA’s electronic medical record (EMR), CPRS and VistA, to allow medical staff to download patient’s demographical information into the Omnivisor Pro

Physicians use of EHR at Sutter Health created a positive impact especially in communication with regards to a patient’s condition or an order, which used to be a challenge to interpret due to illegible handwriting and unstandardized phrase. Furthermore, Epic has an integrated program for medication ordering which provides suggested dosing, route, and frequency, as well as alerts for possible allergic reaction. Additionally, the use of voice recognition software for progress notes dictation in EHR saved most of the physicians’ time, and the tools available for references on clinical practice guidelines are conveniently linked in the Epic program.

Even though speech recognition is not good for all physicians it is for some. This technology would make it much easier for the doctors, nurse and all of the staff. Benefits are significant because

In addition, there is rising confirmation about the advantages for both patients and service suppliers of working in partnership with different administrations. A partnership

The device I chose to research is called the Digital Audio Prescription Label. The device can be used by individuals with vision disabilities and/or blind including senior citizens as their eye sight declines. The device is portable and small in size as the device dimensions are 2 inches in height and 1 inch in width. It attaches with construction manufactured 3M tape to a prescription medication bottle or package. It is made of resilient plastic and contains a small circular speaker located on the upper portion of the label. The speaker volume is set to go up to 70 decibels. It is equipped with one small raised red button located in the center of the device. When the small red button is pressed down, the user is able to hear the prescription instructions aloud. When the user presses the button again, the recording stops. This device is versatile and can be used on a regular

During the day radiologists will have to interpret a lot of scans of different parts of the body. Today technology helps speed up the process for radiologists so they do not have to write, instead they talk into a microphone that recognizes their voice and writes the information in the computer for them. The microphone isn’t as efficient as the radiologists want to be but it still helps in the end. The microphone isn’t as efficient because it doesn’t pick up exactly what the

Electronic medical records (EMR) software is a rapidly changing and often misunderstood technology with the potential to cause great change within the medical field. Unfortunately, many healthcare providers fail to understand the complex functions of EMRs, and they rather choose to use them as a mere alternative to paper records. EMRs, however, have many functionalities and uses that could help to improve the patient-physician relationship and the overall quality of patient care. In order for this potential to be realized, both the patient and the healthcare provider must have a deeper understanding of EMR purpose and function. In this paper will highlights the historical developments and its potential effects on the patient physician relationship in order to

Talk at a normal volume. Speaking very loud (shouting) can be uncomfortable for a patient wearing hearing aids

I is great that you are already using EMR systems. To be honest, I thought Lakeland was behind in updating their systems. I rarely go to the doctor, the only reason I will go, is for my son. I think it is amazing that EMR has a double check system. I know computers are great but sometimes, we, the user makes mistakes when putting information. This will eliminate all kinds of errors that have seen in the past. I am glad that EMR can be used on tablets or laptops because these are the technology we use today. It is convenient for use because it is portable. I hope I will be working with EMR when I start working.

While software selection criteria were not in scope for this effort, it does warrant discussion on the overall availability of specialty software for the medical industry on iOS, Android and Windows platforms. Currently, most of the “MCA’s” or Medical Clinical Assistant platforms operate in a Windows-only environment, as do most of the key medical records and billing platforms in the medical field. The cost of custom software development to build a mobile solution is far beyond the budget of most local hospitals and not an endeavor to be undertaken lightly.
