REVIEWS

Apples iPhone provides physicians with a lot of power in a small package. Likewise, Dragon Medical has become invaluable in my practice of emergency medicine, helping me to more efficiently document with the EMR said Reid F. Conant, MD, board certified emergency physician and chief medical information officer for Tri-City Emergency Medical Group. By bringing the power of Dragon Medical to the iPhone, Im able to retrieve medical information that I need by simply speaking my search. This has proven to be valuable to me, my patients and my colleagues.

Recent and rapid improvements made within the smartphone industry have increased physician demand for easy-to-use, relevant, medically-oriented applications. However, similar to the personal computer and barriers associated with EMR adoption, keyboards, especially those found on smartphones, can slow clinicians down, said Jon Wahrenberger, M.D., a cardiologist at Dartmouth Medical Center. Extending speech recognition to the mobile clinical workflow speeds and simplifies the cumbersome process of having to type on a small keyboard. Dragon Medical Mobile Search has been a tremendous tool to easily access clinically relevant information at the point-of-care without having to fumble through various search engines or worry about spelling a medical term correctly.
