We accumulate more information than ever before. We see more patients in less time, and they're sicker. Doctors and nurses are constantly processing data about patients ranging from vital signs and lab studies to messages from patients and colleagues. Sometimes they are confronted with the complex demands presented by a simple complicated patient,as during surgery or in the intensive care unit or emergency room. Sometimes the demands come from prioritizing issues in the management of a large number of patients in a practice or an inpatient service. Doctors are frequently presented with rapidly evolving problems wherein they must determine which information is most important, and what to do next, in a very short period of time. }, day = {13}, edition = {1}, howpublished = {Paperback}, isbn = {0230617530}, keywords = {health, informatics, medical-informatics, medicine}, month = {October}, posted-at = {2009-11-10 01:34:36}, priority = {5}, publisher = {Palgrave Macmillan}, title = {The Edge of Medicine: The Technology That Will Change Our Lives}, url = {http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect?tag=citeulike07-20&path=ASIN/0230617530}, year = {2009} }
