Description

<p> In the past, collecting medical statistics based on patients’ main complaints was difficult, as researchers had to manually compile information from medical questionnaires. The solution was to use terminals, such as iPads. However, most of the patients visiting hospitals would be elderly people, and using such terminals was difficult for them. To address this problem, nurses will require patients to fill out their medical paper questionnaires as before, and then using OCR technology, the nurses will scan the questionnaires on a scanner; these will then be digitized and verified by a system that we developed. Demonstrating that the system could be used as a primary method to collect medical records and can also be used as a secondary method to aid and support management is possible. It is also an advantage that this system can easily be introduced in the form of adding it to the existing electronic medical record without accompanying large-scale repair of the electronic medical record.</p>
