Reviews In Clinical Health Informatics

 Health informatics (also known as Health Information Systems) uses IT to organize and analyze health records to improve health outcomes. Health Informatics deals with the resources, devices, and methods to use health and medicine information acquisition , storage , retrieval, and use. Tools include the medical terminology, computer technology, information and communication systems. Healthcare informatics provides patients, doctors , nurses, hospital administrators, insurance companies and heath information technicians with electronic access to medical records. Health care informatics is the rapidly developing scientific field dealing with the storage , retrieval, and use of biomedical data, information , and knowledge for problem solving and decision making. Computer Biomedicine and Health are related fields. Health Informatics addresses four major interdisciplinary components; emerging technologies, health management and epidemiology, advanced statistics, and health systems. Health Informatics' outlook is very broad as there are a variety of emerging new technologies that need to be understood, adapted, so they can be used further in health systems and managed for continuous improvement. Health computer science focuses on information systems, informatics principles, and information technology as it will be applied to delivery of health care. It is an integrated discipline with specialized fields covering management science, principles of management engineering, and delivery of healthcare. The amount of technology and data used in clinical settings is high – from patient portals and appointment scheduling to vital sign monitoring machines and pacemakers, the power and sophistication of modern technology has been leveraged.
