Biomedical and health informatics for surgery.

The application of biomedical and health informatics to surgery holds tremendous opportunities to enhance surgical care. Better use of information in surgical practice has the potential to streamline care, remove inefficiencies, and allow for improvements in surgical research. With greater EHR adoption, health care reform, and direct investment in HIT, an increasing opportunity exists for surgeons to access and use patient information more effectively. For this to happen, greater focus on the specific needs of surgeons is particularly important, alongside increasing the number of surgical informatics stakeholders.
