Health Promotion and Disease Prevention Through Pharmacy Interventions

Abstract

The rapidly developing discipline of health informatics offers enormous potential to enhance the prompt administration and high-quality services provided by the healthcare system. One invention that has significantly altered the world is information technology. Health informatics is the application of practical information technology features to healthcare practices with the goal of improving patient outcomes. It significantly facilitates information sharing amongst medical experts. In clinical practice, having reliable, evidence-based data readily available is really beneficial. There are several facets to health informatics. The first is the keeping of medical records. This includes computerised prescribing and electronic management of medical records. It is beneficial to have quick access to all of a patient's medical records. Health experts' time can be greatly saved by this. The availability of a sizable patient population's health data, which may be used for population-based investigations and research, is another benefit. A component of health informatics, clinical decision support systems (also known as CDSS) assist medical professionals, particularly physicians, in making decisions regarding patients throughout their regular practice. They are created as applications or software to be utilised in patient care.
