Nuance’s latest release of its ever-popular Dragon Medical Practice Edition speech recognition software now harnesses the power of artificial intelligence to bring next generation technology into the GP surgery and relieve the burden of administration for hard-pressed GPs and other clinicians making their work lives, and their patients’ experience of care, better. Dragon Medical Practice Edition makes it easier for clinicians to document care into the electronic patient record (EPR) using their voice five times faster than typing and saving them an hour or more per day. It is distinct from non-medical speech recognition, supporting more than 60 specialised medical vocabularies and the customised needs of practices and clinics.
