Computerized endoscopy reports take nearly the same time as handwritten or dictated reports. Computerized reports offer structured data storage for analysis, unlike dictated reports.

Area of Science:

  • Gastroenterology
  • Medical Informatics

Background:

  • Endoscopists utilize various methods for gastrointestinal endoscopy reporting, including handwritten, dictated, and computerized systems.
  • Report generation time is a critical factor in evaluating the efficiency and acceptance of different reporting methods.
  • Understanding the advantages and disadvantages of each reporting system is essential for optimizing clinical workflows.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare the time efficiency of different gastrointestinal endoscopy report writing methods.
  • To evaluate the time taken for report composition and transmission across handwritten, dictated, and computerized systems.

Main Methods:

  • A comparative study was conducted across three endoscopy departments.
  • Investigators recorded the time required to compose and send reports using handwritten, free-text dictated, and pre-defined computerized methods.

  • The time to describe specific endoscopic diagnoses was analyzed for each system.
  • Main Results:

    • Handwritten reports averaged 113 seconds.
    • Free-text dictated reports took 65 seconds for the endoscopist, plus 172 seconds for a typist.
    • Pre-defined computerized reports were completed in an average of 86 seconds.

    Conclusions:

    • Computerized, pre-defined endoscopy reports can be generated in comparable timeframes to handwritten and dictated reports.
    • While both dictated and computerized reports integrate with hospital information systems, only computerized reports offer structured data storage for statistical analysis.
    • The structured database of computerized reports facilitates advanced data analysis and research capabilities.
