The Fictrix digital pen system is an innovative solution for data capture, processing and management. A handwritten image is transmitted to the computer where character recognition software converts it into digital data with over 90% accuracy, making it available for automatic review (database link) to achieve the required 100%. An image filing system also ensures that the image can be stored as a backup system.
Used for clinical research, patient monitoring and post-market evaluation, it reduces time, costs and transcription errors while maintaining the same general processes that clinicians are accustomed to. Global registries and clinical studies can be set up efficiently with remote web-based monitoring. A single-entry registry or clinical database can be developed, regardless of where each site is located, and the data can be stored, monitored, and analyzed centrally in real time if necessary.
The healthcare system is costly and resource intensive. Increased efficiency will result in significant cost reductions.
Clinical trials and registries are costly. Data is captured in the patient file, transcribed onto clinical research forms (CRFs), either entered into a computerized database on location or mailed for central data entry, and finally, monitored by clinical research associates to reduce error. Significant time, cost and potential for human error occur at each step following the original data capture.
Paper medical records in the doctor's office and in the hospital occupy a significant amount of storage space. In addition, specific information, such as prescriptions or lab orders, often require dual entry into the computer in order to interface with the other systems. Again, time, cost and potential for error are all increased each time the same order is processed after the original order is captured. The Fictrix solution not only addresses these issues, but it also frees up time for personnel to concentrate on patient care.
Goals of digital data in healthcare:
The Fictrix solution reduces reliance on human resources, increases efficiency, increases accuracy and reduces error, and therefore, results in cost reduction. In addition, the original information is now saved on the computer, and can be linked to a database or other system for use without further handling. The orignal paper files can be maintained as a back-up system if the user chooses.
The Fictrix Digital Pen system is efficient and easy to use with minimal learning curve. Just write and the data is captured
