Evaluation of Google's Voice Recognition and Sentence Classification for Health Care Applications [PDF]

open access: yesEngineering Management Journal, 27:3, 152-162, 2015
This study examined the use of voice recognition technology in perioperative services (Periop) to enable Periop staff to record workflow milestones using mobile technology. The use of mobile technology to improve patient flow and quality of care could be facilitated if such voice recognition technology could be made robust.
