Personalization
Fluency Direct offers a variety of tools to help you personalize your experience and
daily use.
Dictionary: Create a custom dictionary of Names, Locations, Medications, Procedures,
Diagnoses, and Excluded Words
Abbreviations: Create a collection of abbreviations. This is a list of words or phrases
that you use repeatedly but abbreviate when speaking.
Commands: Create commands to which can be used to insert snippets of text, perform
keyboard shortcuts, and more.
Formatting:Define specific options related to the display and rendering of the dictation
and draft text including dates, times, measurements, and spacing.
Medical Specialty: Fluency Direct focuses on the physician's medical specialty, select
your specialty here to ensure improved recognition.
Profile Training: Training your voice profile, or enrollment, is a simple process. Once
you login as a new user, you have the option to complete the enrollment process after
you have selected and calibrated your microphone. This is recommended for best
recognition results, but is not required to run the program.
Adding a Dictionary Entry
1.Enter the Written Form of the word to be added to the
dictionary.
2.Based on the written form, the pronunciation will be
created. You can change this by clicking the blue
Change link.
3.The Pronunciation dialog will then appear. From here,
you can view the Written Form, Spoken Form and
Record Pronounciation.
Using brackets [ ] around your ‘normals’, allows the cursor to stop and speak/type over the normals, as the patient reports
Suggested Microphone Habits
The best speech recognition quality comes from optimally recorded audio. Follow the
habits below in order to achieve a better experience. The General Dictation Habits
section is applicable to every microphone type.
General Dictation Habits
•Check the microphone settings to verify the microphone you intend to use is selected
and the record buttons are appropriately set.
•Gather your thoughts and assemble any pertinent information prior to dictating.
•Dictate in a quiet area, with minimal background noise. Calibrate microphone if
environment changes.
•Speak in full thoughts or sentences, consistently and evenly, avoiding fragmented
dictations.
•Use correct verbiage and grammar – including punctuation.
•Speak clearly, at a regular pace – articulate properly without over enunciating or
speaking too slowly.
•Enunciate words that can be misunderstood: abduction vs. adduction and hyper vs.
hypo
•Avoid using slang, acronyms, and/or coined terms.
•Be sure to wait until recording has begun before beginning to dictate and only releasing
the record button (if using Hold to Talk) or recording is turned off (if using Toggle to Talk)
after dictation is complete. This prevents words from being “clipped” from the start or tail
end of the dictation.
•Stop recording when taking a pause from dictation. This is to prevent capturing other
conversations or background noises.
•Avoid heavy breathing or coughing into the microphone while recording.
•Never allow another person to dictate under your login. This will negatively affect your
recognition quality.
•It is best to mention any issues to your in-house Help Desk as it may or may not be
related to the hardware.
