A practical introduction and desktop reference on medical informatics.
28 Sep 2007
By Medinfo Doc
Format:Paperback
Most healthcare professionals are using technology in healthcare without any formal training on how to best incorporate it into their practice, clinics, hospitals and training programs so the learning curve is often steep and slow. This book is used as a textbook for the University of West Florida online course "Introduction to Medical Informatics" which is one of four courses needed for its Certificate in Medical Informatics.
If you want to have an easy to read practical reference in your office on online patient and medical resources, clinical practice guidelines, medical programs for PDA's, patient safety to name a few...this is the book to buy!

Order 2008 or 2009 edition, not this one

The content breadth and commentary are the best I've seen.
The authors point out that only an E-Book and constant updates can be most effective for the subject churn pace, and indeed, at www.uwf.edu/sahls/medicalinformatics a 2008 "second" edition is available at less cost.
