We examined whether voice-activated word processors provide an acceptable means for emergency physicians to create medical records. Our study addressed three areas of inquiry: whether physicians can be induced to try this new technology, whether they will continue to use it after outside technical support is withdrawn, and the factors contributing to adoption and substantial use of voice-activated computers by practicing emergency physicians. This paper presents findings from the first half of the study, reflecting physicians' reported experiences while receiving onsite training followed by technical support for three months after system installation. Based on preliminary assessments, the keys to successful use appear to include physician and group commitment, acceptance of a steep learning curve, and flexibility in adapting the computer software and/or practice habits.
我们研究了语音激活文字处理器是否为急诊医生创建病历提供了一种可接受的方式。我们的研究涉及三个调查领域:是否能促使医生尝试这项新技术,在外部技术支持撤销后他们是否会继续使用它,以及促使执业急诊医生采用并大量使用语音激活计算机的因素。本文呈现了研究前半部分的结果,反映了医生在接受现场培训以及系统安装后三个月的技术支持期间所报告的经历。基于初步评估,成功使用的关键似乎包括医生和团队的投入、接受陡峭的学习曲线,以及在调整计算机软件和/或执业习惯方面的灵活性。
