Every day the takeover of paper records by electronic versions seems more inevitable. Many of us who have used the paper version, despite its limitations, are anxious about new technology with its different challenges. In this paper we discuss aspects of both types of record and identify some of their weaknesses and strengths. Whilst there is little science to support one version over the other, the health industry is undoubtedly moving to adopt an electronic record. In writing this paper we aim to reassure clinicians that the electronic record is, on balance, likely to enhance the quality of their professional practice.
每天，纸质记录被电子版本取代似乎都变得更加不可避免。我们当中许多使用过纸质版本的人，尽管它有局限性，但面对新技术及其带来的不同挑战还是感到焦虑。在本文中，我们将讨论这两种记录的各个方面，并指出它们的一些弱点和优点。虽然几乎没有科学依据支持一种版本优于另一种版本，但医疗行业无疑正在朝着采用电子记录的方向发展。在撰写本文时，我们旨在让临床医生放心，总体而言，电子记录可能会提高他们的专业实践质量。
