used the term “informatique” in 1962
Phillipe Dreyfus

Scholes & Barber
a specialty that integrates nursing science, computer science and information science to manage and communicate data, information, knowledge and wisdom in nursing practice
American Nurses Association (2008)
“ Nursing Informatics science and practice integrates nursing, its information and knowledge and their management, with information and communication technologies to promote the health of people, families and communities worldwide”
American Medical Informatics Association (AMIA)
same with ANA definition
Health Information & Management Systems Society (HIMSS)
Benefits of Nursing Informatics in Healthcare (7)
- Informs and influences IT systems
- NI leverages evidence - based clinical best practices
- NI generates stronger nurse training in clinical IT systems
- NI leverages IT investments
- NI contributes unique wisdom to clinical care that is acquired only through a deep understanding of both clinical practice and data analysis
- NI enriches the evolving healthcare delivery system
- NI improves patient care, patient safety and outcomes
How do patients benefit from NI? (5)
Fewer medical errors
More informed clinial-decision making
Shorter hospital lenght of stay
Lower admission and readmission rates
Better self-management
Ways Informatics is Transforming Health Care (6)
- Dramatic Savings
- Shared Knowledge
- Patient Participation
- The Impersonalization of Care
- Increased Coordination
- Improved Outcomes
is the science and practice dealing with the effective collection, storage, retrieval and use of information.
Information Science
introduced the concept of data, information nd knowledge
Thus, IS is the study of information systems, the application and usage of knowledge focuses on why and how technology can be put to best use to serve the information flow within the organization
Blum (1986)
used by healthcare professionals which include monitoring systems; order entry systems and laboratory, radiology and pharmacy system
Clinical Information System
Incorporates the principles of nursing informatics to support the work that nurses do by facilitating documnetation of nursing process activities and offering resources for managing nursing care delivery
