Trigram Mobile has a web interface that allows you to download and print your notes individually or for a date range to a PC or MAC.

Subscribers are provided with a template tool so you can create and edit your own custom templates. The tool installs to Microsoft Word 2010. The template tool also lets you create and manage macros and other Trigram Mobile features. All your templates can be easily uploaded to the program within MS Word.

There’s a difference between a language model and a word list. Trigram starts analyzing the data with not only the most frequently used words within a specialty, but hundreds of examples of how the word is typically used.

In order of importance: 1. Phonetics 2. Context knowledge 3. Vocabulary. The speech engine needs a combination of all three to make your dictation accurate. Many physicians ask, “What words are in there?” or “How many words does the vocabulary have?” If the speech engine can’t understand the phonetics then it will never get the correct word, no matter how many words you have in the vocabulary. And if it can’t accurately convert the phonetics into probable context, it won’t get the dictation correct. So, the amount of words in the vocabulary alone isn’t what makes it accurate.

When you dictate, the speech program converts your voice into sounds or phonemes. The speech engine then takes these phonemes and starts to build possible words based on the sounds. These possible words are then compared to a database of context knowledge. Based on the context, the speech engine outputs the words to your PC. This is what allows the program to type, “anteroinferior” instead of “ants are inferior.”

Trigram vocabularies analyze hundreds of thousands of actual dictations within a given medical specialty. We make sure the specialty is covered to a 99+% including phonetics, context and vocabulary.

They’ll have a much higher accuracy and shorter learning curve. Plus, there’ll be less adding of specialty terms and drugs due to the comprehensive vocabulary.

Trigram Technology language models contain a lot more specific information in how a specialist uses the medical vocabulary in day-to-day dictation. The drugs included in the vocabulary are much more up to date that the ones provided with Medical Suite alone— not to mention the excellent templates package.
