Automated interpretation of medical prescription text.
Many physicians have been reluctant to adopt error-reducing Computerized Physician Order Entry (CPOE) systems, citing a lack of efficiency. This perceived lack of efficiency is often attributed to the user interface, which is invariably a form-like screen. Research was conducted into an alternative in which the physician enters traditional prescription text into a user interface that is analogous to a prescription pad.
