# Add Context to mAIscribe

## Learn how to use Context in mAIscribe to provide additional details - past conditions, private notes, and instructions - without verbalizing them during a consultation.

### **What Is Context in mAIscribe?**

Not everything needs to be said out loud during a consultation. Some details - like sensitive notes, past conditions, or AI instructions - are better kept private.

That’s where **Context** comes in.

By utilizing Context, you can provide additional information at any point - before, during, or after a consultation - which aids mAIscribe in producing notes that are more accurate and relevant.

### **How to Use Context in mAIscribe**

#### **1. Add Past Context**

Use this section to provide background information, such as:

- A patient’s chronic conditions or history relevant to today’s visit.
- Notes from previous consultations that the AI should consider.
- Test results that are relevant to the consult.

💡 **Example:** If a patient has recurrent migraines, adding this as Past Context helps mAIscribe recognise patterns and suggest relevant notes.

#### **2. Use Today’s Context**

Here, you can add:

- Notes you don’t want to say out loud in front of the patient.
- Specific instructions for the AI (e.g., “Emphasise lifestyle changes in the summary”).
- Examination findings or questionnaire results.

💡 **Example:** If a patient presents with chest pain but you suspect anxiety, you can note “Consider anxiety-related causes” in Today’s Context.

#### Note: Once the patient has exited, you can choose to resume recording instead of typing. This allows you to include:

- Extra reflections or assessments.
- Additional instructions for the AI before finalising notes.

### **Why Use Context?**

🔹 **More accurate notes** – Help the AI understand what’s important without saying it out loud.  
🔹 **Greater control** – Ensure your notes reflect what matters most.  
🔹 **Better efficiency** – Reduce editing time by guiding the AI upfront.
