Moderating system response using stress content of voice command
A computer implemented method for automatically moderating a system response to a user's voice command. A voice command from a user is received. The voice command is associated with a system command, the system command including command requirements. A determination is the made as to whether the user is experiencing stress based on a stress level detected in the received voice command, and the command requirements dynamically adjusted when the user is determined to be experiencing stress.
1. A processor-based method for confirming voice commands for a computer system comprising an electronic device for executing commands under a command requirement, comprising:
(a) receiving, at an electronic device via a microphone associated with the electronic device, a first utterance representing a voice command for a first healthcare software application operating under a first command requirement;
(b) automatically processing the first utterance to determine if the first utterance is a voice command comprising a health order associated with the first healthcare software application for a patient;
(c) electronically determining a stress level of the first healthcare provider using the processed first utterance via voice stress analysis to determine micro tremors in the first utterance;
(d) modifying the command requirement to a different command requirement if the electronically determined stress level is above a predetermined threshold;
(e) determining if the different command requirement is met; and
(f) executing the first voice command, based on the determination that the different command requirement is met.
2. The processor-based method of claim 1 , wherein the first voice command comprises an order associated with a medication.
3. The processor-based method of claim 1 , wherein first healthcare software application comprises an application response module.
4. The processor-based method of claim 3 , wherein the application response module interacts with the voice stress analysis software.
5. A non-transitory computer readable storage medium having data stored therein representing software executable by a computer, the software including instructions to confirm voice commands for a computer system comprising an electronic device for executing commands under a command requirement, the storage medium further comprising:
(a) instructions for receiving, at an electronic device via a microphone associated with the electronic device, a first utterance representing a voice command for a first healthcare software application operating under a first command requirement;
(b) instruction for automatically processing the first utterance to determine if the first utterance is a voice command comprising a health order associated with the first healthcare software application for a patient;
(c) instructions for electronically determining a stress level of the first healthcare provider using the processed first utterance via voice stress analysis to determine micro tremors in the first utterance;
(d) instructions for modifying the command requirement to a different command requirement if the electronically determined stress level is above a predetermined threshold;
(e) instructions for determining if the different command requirement is met; and
(f) instructions for executing the first voice command, based on the determination that the different command requirement is met.
6. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 5 , wherein the first voice command is a voice command regarding an order.
7. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 5 , wherein the first voice command is a voice command regarding a medication.
8. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 5 , wherein first healthcare software application comprises an application response module.
9. The non-transitory computer readable storage medium of claim 8 , wherein the application response module interacts with the voice stress analysis software.
10. A processor-based method for confirming voice commands for a computer system comprising an electronic device for executing commands under a command requirement, comprising:
(a) receiving, at an electronic device via a microphone associated with the electronic device, a first utterance representing a voice command for a first healthcare software application operating under a first command requirement;
(b) automatically processing the first utterance to determine if the first utterance is a voice command comprising a health order associated with the first healthcare software application for a patient;
(c) electronically determining a stress level of the first healthcare provider using the processed first utterance via voice stress analysis to determine micro tremors in the first utterance;
(d) modifying the command requirement to a different command requirement if the electronically determined stress level is above a predetermined threshold, wherein the different command requirement comprises additional confirmation requirement for the voice command;
(e) determining if the different command requirement is met; and
(f) executing the first voice command, based on the determination that the different command requirement is met.
11. The processor-based method of claim 1 , wherein the first voice command comprises an order associated with a medication.
12. The processor-based method of claim 1 , wherein first healthcare software application comprises an application response module.
13. The processor-based method of claim 3 , wherein the application response module interacts with the voice stress analysis software.
