This study examined the utility of a multimedia kiosk to capture parents’ knowledge of their children’s asthma medication history. Investigators compared the parental information with that documented by emergency department providers. Results suggested greatest accuracy in medication name followed by route of delivery, form of medication, and dose. The authors conclude that patient-derived data can be effective in improving current deficits in medication documentation during emergency department visits.
