Hello,I apologize for the length of this reply to your two very succinct questions, but this program does so much, so well, that I wanted to give you an accurate representation of its capabilities for use in your practice.
That said, on to the fun part!
Dragon NaturallySpeaking™ Medical Suite
Smart Practices
Managing your time wisely is the key to increasing patient satisfaction while reducing overhead, overtime, and stress.
Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Suite is a strongly-enhanced version of the widely acclaimed, award-winning Dragon NaturallySpeaking speech-recognition software product. Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Suite is the first product designed specifically for the medical professional to use in creating general medical documents by speaking naturally and directly to your PC or into a recorder.
You can quickly create medical reports, patient notes, medical records, correspondence, and e-mail. You can even eliminate the fees paid to an outside service. And, there's no need to wait for hours, or even days, for your work to be transcribed.
With Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Suite you can increase your productivity and be more responsive to your patients.
Dictate, format, and edit your text within Microsoft® Word 97 and Corel® WordPerfect® 8.
You can also dictate directly into virtually any Windows application including PowerPoint®, Excel®, Eudora Pro™, Microsoft Exchange, and Lotus® SmartSuite.
The large active vocabularies have the words and terms that most doctors use on a regular basis. There is a total vocabulary of 240,000 words and you can select a comprehensive active vocabulary of 30,000, 45,000, or 55,000 words. Spelling, pronunciation, context recognition and word usage information is included for each word.
Use the extensive medical vocabulary of thousands of terms including medication names, medical procedures, diagnoses, symptoms and conditions, and common acronyms to create your medical documents quickly, efficiently and cost-effectively.
You can say the terms the way that you are used to saying them and the words will be spelled the way you expect them to be spelled.
Now with Natural Language Commands you don't have to memorize a set of fixed commands to edit, format and navigate in Microsoft® Word 97. State the commands in a natural manner and natural language commands will respond.
The revolutionary Vocabulary Builder™ lets you tailor vocabularies to the way you speak and write. It analyzes your chosen electronic documents automatically in order to find new words, specialized terms, and proper names. The words are added with their correct spelling, pronunciation, and context usage information for optimal performance. You can create multiple vocabularies for multiple specialties or personal interests.
Examples of the medical vocabulary included in Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Suite.
Medication names: ACTH, acyclovir, Adriamycin, alprazolam, amikacin, captopril, Fansidar, Halcion, Hemoccult, verapamil, zidovudine
Medical procedures: augmentation, biopsy, bronchodilation, cholangiography, debridement, dialysis, excision, laparoscopy, lymphadenectomy,
Medical diagnoses: adenopathy, candidiasis,chlamydia, cryoglobulinemia, emesis, fasciitis, hemangioma, hemochromatosis, natriuresis
Diseases: Addison's alopecia, anthrax, Crohn's, diverticulosis, Parkinson's seborrhea, teratoma
Editing and formatting by voice is made easy in Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Suite. Control your mouse and enter keystrokes without typing, by speaking directly to your PC. Easily edit, format, correct, change, or find any word or phrase by saying intuitive commands, such as "bold that" or "select". Move your mouse pointer with pinpoint accuracy, click buttons, and activate menus by saying simple speech commands.
Increase your speech recognition accuracy by 25% with BestMatch™. A major advance in speech recognition technique, Dragon Systems' BestMatch technology uses many new capabilities including enhanced and expanded speech and vocabulary models to deliver greater accuracy. BestMatch requires a powerful PC.
The following are examples of natural language command groups, with different ways to accomplish the same task.
To make a table:
Create a table with four rows and five columns, or
Add a four by five table, or
Insert table five columns by four rows.
To change a color
Turn the next paragraph red, or
Color the following paragraph red, or
Make next paragraph red, or
Select the following paragraph. Make it red.
Macros are speech commands that allow you to enter boilerplate text into documents or execute complicated commands with a single word or phrase. You can speech-enable your existing macros and create new macros to fill in medical templates that you use on a regular basis.
The Command Wizard™ feature makes it easy for you, your technical staff person, or a Dragon Systems Reseller to create macros. The Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Suite does not come with macro templates.
Sample designs for medical macros:
You say, "Request Lab Tests," and Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Suite opens up a standard request form for laboratory services.
You say "Bill Smith," and Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Suite fills in the patient information.
You then request "full work up" and "send results to office" to complete your request.
You say, "Check e-mail Messages," and Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Suite goes to your e-mail and opens any new mail.
You say, "Open Patient History Bill Smith," and Dragon NaturallySpeaking Medical Suite opens up a "patient history file" for "Bill Smith" and prompts you to fill in the form.
Dictating on the Go
Record notes and letters, anywhere, anytime into an approved handheld recorder. When you are ready to transcribe them simply connect your recorder to your PC, and Dragon NaturallySpeaking will immediately put your words into your PC and onto your screen.
NaturallyMobile™ software makes dictating easy, reliable, and flexible. You can dictate or, if you prefer, save your dictation on a disk, on your network, or as an e-mail attachment, and then send it to the person who will be working with your files.
Main Features
True Continuous Speech: Speak to your computer naturally and at a normal pace - up to 160 words per minute and more - without pausing between words. Your words are immediately transcribed on the screen and into your documents.
Highly Accurate: The accuracy that PC World reported as 98% and that PC Week found to be "95% or higher" is now even better. Industry-leading BestMatch™ recognition technology reduces errors by 25% to achieve higher accuracy than ever before.
Integrated with Microsoft Word 97 and Corel® WordPerfect® 8: easily edit, format, or correct words and phrases with NaturalWord™ and the Select-and-Say™ feature. Say "select" followed by replacement text or such natural commands as "bold that" and "move to top of document" and your editing will be done. Control keystrokes and your mouse by speaking.
Large Medical Vocabulary: Comprehensive vocabulary of specialized medical terms for a variety of medical uses including medication names, medical procedures, diagnoses, diseases, anatomical terms, surgical instruments, psychological and psychiatric terms.
