How to Create an Operative Report Using MedXcribe

Operative reports are critical documents that detail surgical procedures—from diagnosis to outcome. Traditionally, creating them takes time and manual transcription. But with MedXcribe, you can generate accurate, well-formatted reports simply by speaking.

Here’s how it works:

Step 1: Record the Operative Report

Use your phone, computer, or dictation device to record your operative report. Speak naturally and follow the standard structure, including:

  • Preoperative and postoperative diagnoses

  • Procedure performed

  • Indications for surgery

  • Operative findings and details

  • Surgeon and anesthesia

  • Blood loss, complications, and disposition

    Example:
    “This is for Emily Parker, a 28-year-old female who underwent ACL reconstruction and meniscus repair…”



Step 2: Upload & Select the Template

Go to Medxcribe.com, log in, and click on the Templates button.
Then:

  • Select Operative_Report from the dropdown list

  • Upload your recorded audio (via file, link, or direct recording)

  • Click Submit to begin processing

Step 3: MedXcribe Delivers a Structured Operative Report

Once you submit your recording, MedXcribe automatically:

  • Transcribes your audio with high accuracy

  • Formats it into a clean, professional operative report—saving you the hassle of structuring the content manually

  • Organizes the information into standard surgical sections, including:

    • Preoperative/Postoperative Diagnosis – Documents the condition before and after surgery

    • Procedure Performed – States what was done during the operation

    • Findings – Notes observations made during the procedure

    • Procedure Details – Step-by-step surgical technique and tools used

    • Estimated Blood Loss – Provides the total blood loss measured

    • Specimens Removed – Lists any tissues or samples sent to pathology

    • Complications – Records any intraoperative issues (if any)

    • Disposition – Outlines the patient’s condition post-surgery and follow-up plan

Your final document is well-structured, EMR-ready, and ready to download or share—within minutes.

Step 4: Review & Export
