New report preparation system for endoscopic procedures using speech recognition technology

Abstract

BACKGROUND AND STUDY AIMS: We developed a new reporting system based on structured data entry, which selectively extracts only endoscopic findings from endoscopists' oral statements and automatically inputs them into appropriate columns in real time during endoscopic procedures. METHODS: We compared the time for endoscopic procedures and report preparation (ER time) by using an esophagogastroduodenoscopy simulator in three groups: one …
