Dictation system speeds turnaround

Designed specifically for hands-free operation in the pathology lab, this system distributes a digital audio file direct to a human transcriber

LabSpeak is described as a revolutionary dictation solution, specifically designed to improve the turnaround time of reports dictated in a laboratory environment.

High quality dictation can be recorded, edited and prioritised and distributed for secretarial transcription using a totally hands-free procedure.

LabSpeak combines the voice recognition software Dragon NaturallySpeaking and the Lexacom digital dictation management software.

The Lexacom interface is controlled either by voice via a wireless headset microphone, or by the optional waterproof footswitch.

VoicePower has developed this system in conjunction with Birmingham Heartlands Hospital pathology department.

Dictation is recorded totally hands-free in high quality digital audio, reducing the risk of misinterpretation.

The created dictation is automatically sent through the computer network for immediate transcription - so no more lost tapes.

The fully featured dictation management software improves workflow and efficiency by immediately delivering prioritised dictations to predetermined transcriptionists, thus improving turnaround time of reports.

In a hospital pathology environment this solution brings about benefits to the patient, pathologist, hospital and secretary.

Instant distribution and useful timesaving features dramatically improve workflow, while a detailed tracking system charts the progress of each dictation.

LabSpeak is said to be the ideal solution for laboratory-based dictation and distribution of dictation, where a hands-free, hygienic and efficiency improving system is of paramount importance.
