Abstract:
Medical students must be able to access electronic medical records and to utilize the information during bedside learning. However, there are no guidelines for using the electronic medical record system in undergraduate medical education. We created and implemented a written agreement regarding regulations for using the system. To ensure system security, users are authenticated with a fingerprint mouse. The patients' information can be retrieved from an Intranetbased reference database, and students' sheets are prepared for training in writing medical records. In conclusion, this method is a way of enhancing the authenticity of clinical education.
