The idea for Handbook of Informatics for Nurses & Healthcare Professionals first came from the realiza-tion that there were few resources that provided practical information about computer applications and information systems in healthcare. From its inception, this book served as a guide for nurses and other health- care professionals who needed to learn how to adapt and use computer applications and informatics in the work- place. Over time, this text became a reliable resource for students in a variety of healthcare professions who needed to develop informatics competencies. This book serves undergraduates who need a basic understanding, as well as those who require more depth, such as infor- matics nurse specialists, clinical nurse leaders, doctoral students, and other healthcare professionals.
After a thorough revision in response to reviewers and users of the book, the sixth edition reflects the rapid changes in healthcare information technology (HIT) and informatics. The authors endeavour to provide an understanding of the concepts, skills, and tasks that are needed for healthcare professionals today and to achieve the federal government’s national information technology goals to help transform healthcare delivery.
The sixth edition builds upon the expertise pro- vided by contributors currently involved in day-to-day informatics practice, education, and research. Both the primary editors and the contributors share an avid inter- est and involvement in HIT and informatics, as well as experience in the field, involvement in informatics groups, and a legacy of national and international pre- sentations and scholarly publications.
New to This Edition • New! All chapters thoroughly revised to reflect the
current and evolving practice of health information technology and informatics
• New! Chapter on informatics theory and prac- tice connects theoretical concepts to applications (chapter 2)
• New! Coverage of technology and caring and their symbiotic relationship
• New! Content on ethical use of information lays encompasses appropriate and inappropriate behav- iour and actions, and of right and wrong.
• New! Information on analytics and data science that explains how Big Data applies to healthcare
• New! Cutting-edge content on wearable and mobile technology security, and its impact on nursing and patient care
• New! Academic electronic health record resources and the role they play in educating the next generation of healthcare providers on documentation principles
• New! Hardware and software appendix (appendix A)
• New! Guide to the Internet (appendix B)
• New! An Overview of Tools for the Informatics Nurse (appendix C)
Changes to This Edition • The sixth edition streamlines content by combining
chapters with topics that fit together, and shifting hardware, software, and information on the Inter- net to new appendices.
• This edition reworks previous content on informa- tion systems training and presents it within the context of workforce development. The content still retains the emphasis upon privacy and confidential- ity, introduction of information policies, educational methods and resources. New content on evaluation models and training on backup procedures has also been added.
• Former content on integration, interoperability and health information exchange is now presented within the context of information networks and information exchange.
• Moves from defining evidence-based practice to a discussion of levels of evidence and using informat- ics to support evidence-based practice and research.
• Separate chapters on policy, legislation, regulatory, reimbursement, and accreditation issues were com- bined to better show the connection among these
