Webinar on Healthcare Informatics and Technology will be hosted on September 23, 2020. Panel of speakers will be delivering their presentations on their recent research related to the innovations in healthcare. Current state of knowledge, its impact on future will be discussed in detailed. Meetings International invites all experts to be part this webinar series and make it a perfect platform for knowledge sharing and networking.
Health informatics is the practice of acquiring, studying and managing health data and applying medical concepts in conjunction with health information technology systems to help clinicians provide better healthcare. Health informatics allows important health information to be shared throughout the chain of care, from the patient right to health administrator and pharmacist. Health informatics system uses information technology to organize and analyze health records to improve healthcare outcomes.
The Electronic Health Record (EHR) is a longitudinal electronic record of patient health information generated by one or more encounters in any care delivery setting. Included in this information are patient demographics, progress notes, problems, medications, vital signs, past medical history, immunizations, laboratory data and radiology reports. The EHR automates and streamlines the clinician's workflow. The EHR has the ability to generate a complete record of a clinical patient encounter - as well as supporting other care-related activities directly or indirectly via interface - including evidence-based decision support, quality management, and outcomes reporting.
Data analytics is the future of health and health care. It is no longer possible for people to navigate the complexities of health and medical disciplines without data analytics. Our faculty interests span a wide range of topics including comparative effectiveness, causality, knowledge discovery from data, predictive modeling, and anomaly detection. In data analytic efforts, we closely collaborate with experts in health services research, health administration, and health policy.
Medical informatics is an interdisciplinary and scientific field that studies the effective uses of biomedical data, information, and knowledge for scientific inquiry, problem solving, and decision making motivated by efforts to improve human health. It deals with develop and apply methods native to informatics and information sciences in order to better understand and to improve health care and train future medical informatics specialists and educate other professionals to appreciate the scope and potential of health informatics in health care and to encourage them to participate in health informatics initiatives.
Biomedical Informatics is the field that is concerned with the optimal use of information, often aided by the use of technology and people, to improve individual health, health care, public health, and biomedical research. Biomedical technology broadly refers to the application of engineering and technology principles to the domain of living or biological systems. Usually inclusion of the term biomedical denotes a principal emphasis on problems related to human health and diseases, whereas terms like "biotechnology" can be medical, environmental, or agricultural in application. But most terms in this general realm still lack clear boundaries. Biomedical engineering and Biotechnology alike are often loosely called Biomedical Technology or Bioengineering. Biomedical Informatics is the field that is concerned with the optimal use of information, often aided by the use of technology and people, to improve the individual health, health care, public health, and biomedical research.
Clinical Informatics is concerned with the use of information in health care by and clinicians. Clinicians collaborate with other health care and information technology professionals to develop health informatics tools which promote patient care that is safe, efficient, effective, timely, patient-centered, and equitable. Clinical informaticians transform health care by analyzing, designing, implementing, and evaluating information and communication systems that enhance individual and population health outcomes, improve patient care, and strengthen the clinician-patient relationship. Clinical informaticians use their knowledge of patient care combined with their understanding of informatics concepts, methods, and health informatics. The information and clinical choice backing included in this field are produced for and utilized by clinicians, patients, and guardians.
