Dragon® Medical Practice Edition 2 is widely recognized as one of the leading voice
recognition and transcription software packages for the healthcare industry available
today. Unlike more generic solutions this voice recognition software from Nuance has
been designed with a medical vocabulary spanning several hundred thousand words and
phrases and 90 subspecialties, which saves you having to "teach" the software what
context these phrases can be used in, or simply how they're spelled.
As powerful as Dragon Medical Practice Edition 2 is, the quality of the output it provides
is dictated by the quality of the input it receives. It's important to remember that all voice
recognition software operates on the basic principle of converting the analog sound
waves of your voice into digital data, which the software can then interpret and convert
into text or commands. So the quality of the device you use to provide this input is going
to be especially important.
The Nuance PowerMic™ II is a perfect example of an input device that not only acts as a
high-quality, noise-cancelling microphone but also allows you to control your electronic
health record system (EHR) by using the track-mouse button on it. This hybrid digital
microphone also has an 8-foot cable attached to it, so you can move around your patient
or subject while you're dictating and/or controlling your EHR at the same time.
Digital recorders are also a popular choice when it comes to accessories for Dragon
Medical Practice Edition 2 because they're instantly familiar to most physicians, ensuring
that little training is required for them to be used properly and in conjunction with this
voice processing software from Nuance. With digital recorders, you do have the choice
between using a wired or wireless unit, but most healthcare professionals tend to prefer
the wireless option.
One of the most recent digital recorder releases was the Philips Digital Pocket Memo
8000, an advanced device with all the bells and whistles, and then some. This device
lands at the top of the market for functionality and advanced features that you won’t find
on any other device.
