Distributions and Content of Quoted Speech in the Mental Health Record

  • Applicant: Lasantha Jayasinghe
  • Project ID: 19-096

Having developed a method for identifying quoted speech in a previous project (PRJ 18-092), we will seek to develop this further by examining the quoted speech produced for all records on CRIS in order to investigate how this is used in patients’ records. We will specifically investigate how quoted speech varies by patient diagnosis and characteristics, and by the profession of the recording clinician, as well as describing length and common content of quoted speech.

The Clinical Record Interactive Search (CRIS) system is a computer system that allows researchers at the NIHR Maudsley Biomedical Research Centre (BRC) to carry out research using information from South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust clinical records.
