Working with Notes

Important

Notes can be added from the Explorer screen for exams that are not in a Completed or Final status.

Notes can be created for the current report and/or the patient record. The content within each note remains in PowerScribe One and does not pass through an interface to third-party systems, such as your EHR or EMR.

Notes can be created, viewed, edited, or deleted by the user who created the note from the bottom pane of the Explorer screen or the Report Editor.

Create a note

  1. Select New Note.
  2. Enter the relevant text in the New Note field.
  3. Select OK.

Edit or delete a note

Select the corresponding Edit or Delete button for the note.

Copy note content into a report

  1. Highlight the text in the note.
  2. Right-click and select Copy.
  3. Right-click in the report where the text should appear and select Paste.

Note

  • By default, a note is associated only with the current report.
  • Select Add to Patient Record to associate the note with all reports for the patient. For example, if a patient has an allergy, this option may be used.
