Electronic Patient Record for Dental Charting
The use of electronic patient records has a great positive potential to improve clinical practice and patient safety. These improvements can be realized through improved legibility and communication, standardized documentation, streamlined storage and consistent reporting. This paper addresses the development of an electronic patient record for dental charting as an alternative means towards a user-friendly and patient-centered dental environment. It considers prevalent dental charting practices, proposes a patient dental database and presents a dental charting application prototype, capable of capturing and displaying patient dental records. Data from this database is mapped and can be further manipulated through the patient's interactive dental chart. This interactivity not only offer quick-to-comprehend interfaces, but also reduces miscommunicationss. It will affect positively the legibility of dental records, enable a standardized documentation and a more consistent reporting

Informace ve zdravotnickĂ© dokumentaci sloužà k mnoha účelĹŻm: mohou bĂ˝t pouĹľity k diagnostice a terapii, zdravotnická dokumentace obsahuje informace, kterĂ© mohou bĂ˝t podkladem pro finanÄŤnĂ Ăşhrady za ošetĹ™enĂ nebo pro ÄŤerpánĂ Ăşhrady ze zdravotnĂho pojištÄ›nĂ. Data mohou bĂ˝t vyuĹľita ke statistickĂ©mu vyhodnocenĂ a jinĂ˝m odbornĂ˝m pĹ™ĂpadnÄ› vÄ›deckĂ˝m účelĹŻm. CĂlem studie je ověřit jednoduchost ukládánĂ dat a porovnávánĂ ÄŤasovĂ© nároÄŤnosti třà metod záznamu dentálnĂch ĂşdajĹŻ: zápis do zubnĂ WHO karty a elektronickĂ˝ zdravotnĂ záznam (EHR) ovládanĂ˝ klávesnicĂ nebo hlasem. Všechny tĹ™i metody byly pouĹľity u 126 pacientĹŻ. Nejprve byly pacienti vyšetĹ™eni standardnĂ technikou (komunikace mezi lĂ©kaĹ™em a sestrou) a data zaznamenána do WHO karty. StejnĂ˝ zubnĂ lĂ©kaĹ™ provedl záznam všech dat do EHR za pouĹľitĂ klávesnice nebo pĹ™i ovládánĂ hlasem. PotĂ© jsme porovnávali dobu, potĹ™ebnou k uloĹľenĂ záznamu u všech třà metod. UĹľitĂm Friedmanova testu jsme nalezli signifikantnĂ rozdĂly ÄŤasovĂ© nároÄŤnosti mezi tĹ™emi metodami (p<0,001). RuÄŤnĂ zápis do zubnĂ WHO karty byl proveden rychle, ale jeho opÄ›tovnĂ© pouĹľitĂ je velmi obtĂĹľnĂ©, protoĹľe nenĂ v elektronickĂ© podobÄ›. RozdĂl ÄŤasovĂ© nároÄŤnosti záznamĹŻ vyšetĹ™enĂ pĹ™i pouĹľitĂ EHR ovládanĂ©ho klávesnicĂ nebo hlasem nebyl signifikantnĂ.

The data can be used in statistics and other scientific purposes. The aim of study is to verify the simplicity of data process implementation and time of data storing for modification of classical paper WHO dental card, lifetime dental EHR controlled by keyboard and lifetime dental EHR controlled by voice. All three methods were applied on 126 patients. At first the patients were inspected by a standard technique (communication between dentist and nurse) and the data recorded into the paper WHO dental card. The same person recorded all data to lifetime dental EHR using keyboard and using voice. Then we compared the time, which was needed for recording the data using these three methods. Using Friedman test we found very significant differences in time of recording among three methods (p<0.001). We can see that the paper WHO dental card was recorded quickly, but its rise due to missing electronic form is difficult. Times for recording data using keyboard or voice in lifetime dental EHR were not significantly different. The clinical practice...2. lĂ©kaĹ™ská fakulta UKSecond Faculty of MedicineFirst Faculty of Medicine1. lĂ©kaĹ™ská fakult
