MEDICAL INFORMATICS is also known as
health informatics
It is the discipline that directly impacts the patient – physician relationship.
medical informatics
It focuses on the information technology that enables the effective collection of data using technology tools to develop medical knowledge and to facilitate the delivery of patient medical care.
medical informatics
This field deals with the resources, devices, and methods required to optimize the acquisition, storage, retrieval, and use of information in health and biomedicine.
medical informatics

monitoring
It is a computerized drug storage devices or cabinets that allows medication to be stored and dispensed near the point of care while controlling and tracking drug distribution
automated dispensing cabinets
an application that enables providers to enter medical orders into a computer system, rather than placing orders using paper and impacts many areas including nursing, pharmacy, laboratory, admissions and radiology
Computerized Provider Order Entry (CPOE)
- It is an inventory control system that uses barcodes to prevent human error in distribution of prescription medication in the hospital.
- The information is encoded in barcodes which allows for the comparison of the medication being administered with what was ordered for the patient.
Barcode Medication Administration
____ is designed to make sure that the right drug is given to the right patient via the right route in the right amount and right time
Barcode Point-of-Care system (BPOC)
Technology that automatically documents the administration of medication into certified EHR technology using electronic tracking sensors (for example, radio frequency identification (RFID)) or electronically readable tagging such as bar coding).
Electronic Medication Administration Record (eMAR)
a technology framework that allows physicians and other medical practitioners to write and send prescriptions to a participating pharmacy electronically instead of using handwritten or faxed notes or calling in prescriptions.
Electronic prescribing
- a robotic device that automatically prepares medications for syringes and IV bags in a sterile environment.
- eliminates cross-contamination and errors in delicate medication preparations. The exacting robotic system not only automates crucial compounding processes that are vulnerable to human error, but uses UV pulse disinfection for medication bags and vials to eliminate bacterial and fungal contamination.
Robotics IV Automation (RIVA)
- commonly used in healthcare settings to deliver medications, fluids and nutrients to patients at precisely controlled rates.
- have become increasingly sophisticated and include such features as dose error reduction software, commonly referred to as drug libraries.
Smart pumps
Infusion pumps
dose error reduction software commonly referred to as
drug libraries
is a software-based automation service that uses AI, relying on robots or software for performing daily tasks and certain business processes with higher accuracy and speed. The result is higher efficiency, performance, reduced cost, and advanced data analytics.
Robotic Process Automation (RPA)
the most common informatics tools used by medical and pharmacy practitioners as well as students
mobile apps
most utilized mobile app by a pharmacist in the Philippines
SwipeRx
- offers an easy-to-use mobile app that allows pharmacies to keep up to date and connect with their peers.
- is uniquely designed for pharmacy professionals in Southeast Asia to help them run their pharmacy more efficiently and effectively
SwipeRx
allows patients to have a remote, non-emergency office visit with their health care provider by using a smartphone, computer or tablet
telemedicine
Telemedicine Network of the Philippines (TNP) was established and held its first teleconference network meeting on
May 18, 2016
- This network is the first to simultaneously connect hospitals across the country utilizing the network server established by the DOST.
- aims to provide a continuous collaborative medical education, and eventually, to utilize technology in the future as a way to reach out to our patients.
Telemedicine Network of the Philippines
a method used in pharmacy practice in which a pharmacist utilizes telecommunications technology to oversee aspects of pharmacy operations or provide patient care services.
telepharmacy
Pharmacist will visually observe and verify name, strength, dosage form and quantity restocked in automated dispensing device
Medication verification
Pharmacist visually insures with the technician that the medication is placed in the proper location in the automated dispensing device
restocking
- Technician will print ADD fill list & scan copy to remote pharmacist
- Technician will pull needed medication from inventory in the pharmacy
Fill lists
The utilization of a remote camera and telehealth technology to oversee automated dispensing device
ADD restocking
