About this book
The ability to interface patient monitors directly to a computer, and generate a clinical record has existed for over 20 years. However, the acceptance of comprehensive electronic medical records in anesthesia has been slow to develop. Experts anticipate this reluctance is changing because of enhanced patient care through the use of detailed health information record systems. Anesthesia Informatics provides the health informatician and administrator with a comprehensive overview of this blossoming technology. With contributions from leaders in the field, this user-friendly guide addresses how this technology has enhanced both the need for and the ability to collect and apply data in an acute care setting. It also offers invaluable insight on the business implications and the rationales required to make a purchase decision. Each section outlines need to know information to help the reader with the implementation and utilization of an Anesthesia Information Management System. Useful case scenarios focus on the ideal components (anesthesia record, business rationale, communication, collaboration, and training) of a fully automated record-keeping system.
Reviews
From the reviews:
"This comprehensive review of the technological advances in medical informatics emphasizes the integration of these advances into the clinical practice of anesthesiology. … Practicing anesthesiologists who have questions about medical informatics and will be incorporating it into their clinical practice are the intended audience. While residents and medical students also may benefit from it … . this book is a worthy contribution to the field." (Mohammed Minhaj, Doody’s Review Services, January, 2009)
Aus den Rezensionen: “Ein Buch ... das sich ausschließlich mit Informationssystemen in der Anästhesie beschäftigt, ist ein Beleg dafür, dass die moderne Health IT mittlerweile doch einen gewissen Reifegrad erreicht hat. In dem Reader ‘Anesthesia lnformatics‘ geben ... Autoren einen Komplettüberblick zu Informationssystemen in der Anästhesie (AIMS), Managementsystemen für den OP-Saal (ORMS) und mobilen IT-Lösungen für Anästhesisten. Installation, Schnittstellen und das digitale Medikationsmanagement sind dabei selbstverständlich Themen ... Besonders anschaulich sind vier Case Reports, die das Buch auflockern ...“ (Grätzel, in: E-Health-Com, February/2010, Issue 1, S. 70)Authors and Affiliations
