Application of speech recognition data entry enhancements in an Electronic Patient Care Report (ePCR).
Based on the Alabama Patient Care Report we developed a basic Electronic Patient Care Report (ePCR) to collect data in an EMS environment. The ePCR GUI is now enhanced using speech recognition to provide speech-based command and control mechanisms to input structured data and initiate processes. This voice-enabled ePCR (vePCR) is used to evaluate the feasibility of handling EMS test cases and to get user feedback about the speech recognition functionality and usefulness.
