Abstract:


    The key to physician acceptance of computer-based clinical record systems lies in the development of comprehensive record systems providing rapid data input, retrieval, and interaction for the physician. Comprehensiveness is important to avoid duplication of record media in computerized and paper forms. Input and retrieval speeds must be competitive with traditional manual or dictation techniques so that productivity of the physician may be maintained or enhanced rather than degraded.
