Download or read book Anesthesia Informatics written by Jerry Stonemetz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-11-05 with total page 511 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 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.

Download or read book The Practice of Anaesthesia and Technology Advancement written by Patrick Kimuyu and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Medicine - Therapy, grade: 1, Egerton University, language: English, abstract: This essay will discuss the newly invented technologies in anesthesia. Technological advancement appears to have influenced all aspects of life in the universe leading to remarkable changes in the society. Currently, the world is flooded with new technologies and scientific discoveries and, more are still emerging. This implies that these new technologies and scientific inventions will exert an immense impact on society. However, the wave of technological advancements seems to favor some fields with others experiencing the shock of technology impact. Interestingly, the field of healthcare and medicine are some of the beneficiaries of the newly emerging technologies; hence, medical practice has become relatively sophisticated owing to advanced delivery of care, treatment of chronic diseases and identification of newly emerging diseases and health conditions. It is worth noting that healthcare systems and the scope of medical sciences of the 21st Century are relatively different from the 19th Century versions because the impact of technological developments in the last decade seems to have transformed healthcare delivery systems with some of the newly invented technologies producing extraordinary performances. However, it is worth noting that technological advancement in healthcare and medicine has not only led to the discovery of new drugs but, it has also improved safety and precision in clinical investigations. Moreover, it has led to the emergence of new medical procedures, which have, in turn, improved the quality of care offered to patients by healthcare professionals. For instance, the practice of anesthesia, which is seemingly built on technological advances, appear to have achieved a remarkable progress, especially with regard to the quality of care, owing to a number of technologies developed in the past decade.
