Incidence of speech recognition errors in the emergency department.
The study’s aim was to determine the incidence and types of speech recognition (SR) errors introduced by computerized SR technology in the emergency department (ED). It found that SR errors occur commonly with annunciation errors being the most frequent. Error rates were comparable if not lower than previous studies. Fifteen percent of errors were deemed critical, potentially leading to miscommunication that could affect patient care.
