Listen, type or dictate
Capture can listen with the patient’s consent. You can also type, click, dictate or use your dot phrases.
LastPatient Capture
Every fact, captured at the visit.
Work the way you already do. Capture can listen to the visit with the patient’s consent, or you type, click and dictate. LastPatient’s database structure defines the variables, and your dot phrases add your own. Each fact lands in its own as you go. You confirm them before you close the note, and it’s written from what you confirmed.

What happens during the visit.
Variables defined as you go
LastPatient’s database structure defines the variables, and your dot phrases add your own. Side, structure, findings and plan each land in their own.
Confirmed by you
You review and sign before you close the note. A person checks every note, every time.
Documenting the visit

The usual note, one block of text

Before any of this is usable, software has to re-read it and guess.

Variables you define
Every blank is its own variable.
LastPatient’s database structure defines the core variables, and your dot phrases add your own. Every blank in a dot phrase is its own variable: type .kneeexam, fill in side and flexion, and both are saved as data, not just text. Update a dot phrase once and every dot phrase that nests it picks up the change, so there’s no going through them one by one.
The dot phrase
.kneeexam
{{side}} knee: ROM 0 to {{flexion}} degrees. {{.stability}}
- Blue = blanks you fill in.
- Teal = another dot phrase.
What it saves
Left knee: ROM 0 to 120 degrees. Stable to varus and valgus stress.
- SideLeft
- Flexion120°
- StabilityStable, varus and valgus
Questions surgeons ask
What surgeons ask us first.
Does it replace my EMR?
No. It works alongside your EMR, as an overlay that interacts with it through an API.
Where does the audio go?
It’s transcribed on the device. The Security page has the rest.
How many variables can I capture?
LastPatient’s database structure sets the core variables. On top of those, every blank in your own dot phrases adds one, with no fixed limit.
