  Spoken medical dialogue systems are increasingly attracting interest to
enhance access to healthcare services and improve quality and traceability of
patient care. In this paper, we focus on medical drug prescriptions acquired on
smartphones through spoken dialogue. Such systems would facilitate the
traceability of care and would free clinicians' time. However, there is a lack
of speech corpora to develop such systems since most of the related corpora are
in text form and in English. To facilitate the research and development of
spoken medical dialogue systems, we present, to the best of our knowledge, the
first spoken medical drug prescriptions corpus, named PxSLU. It contains 4
hours of transcribed and annotated dialogues of drug prescriptions in French
acquired through an experiment with 55 participants experts and non-experts in
prescriptions. We also present some experiments that demonstrate the interest
of this corpus for the evaluation and development of medical dialogue systems.
