Ok, I've given some more thought to this. To give some constructive criticism. I've been watching the videos, watching people enter data, soap notes, and the transcription. It all seems so painful. The interface is a lot of small screens, with buttons connecting them. In the dictation screen, you can't reach anything else. You can't seem to look at labs, look at xrays. Similarly, the soap note interface brings up a large text entry with an iPad keyboard. Several of the other interfaces bring up these somewhat jarring iOS inputs. None of this seems to flow well. I feel like you have this open 10" multi-touch device, but you are using interface paradigms from old point and click interfaces. Here are some interesting possibilities: - Use the fact that you can scroll infinitely on the iPad. A page could have a ton of data vertically, that you can scroll up/down. - Maybe you can also scroll/swipe left/right to get to different sections. from Note to Xrays to Labs. Let there be a definite order of those pages. I'm thinking like the Wired magazine app for iPad. Swipe left a couple of times, I'm at labs. I can find what I want, swipe right a couple of times to be back where I started. Or at least short cut buttons for every section so you can jump back and forth easily. - Current labs could be embedded in the current note/encounter page. It's obvious I'm going to want to see those. Scroll down to see them, swipe left/right to see older ones. - Why are soap notes in full text input? Why not a large page of customizable Positive/Negative toggles? Most EMRs are like this, but having it on the touch screen seems like it might be nice, especially if you can scroll past ones you don't care about quickly. This also helps to minimize pulling up a full keyboard, which is an awkward event on the iPad. You don't want to be typing long passages if you can avoid it. - Seems custom interfaces could be explored for making data entry easier. Be it medicines, or complaints etc... anyhow, obviously those things are just top-of-the-head wild thoughts, but the abilities are there. I just don't see this as an "iPad EMR" but an EMR that was put on the iPad.
