'''[[Health informatics]]''' (also called '''health care informatics''', '''healthcare informatics''', '''medical informatics''', '''nursing informatics''',  '''clinical informatics''', or '''biomedical informatics''') is a discipline at the intersection of [[information science]], computer science, and health care. It deals with the resources, devices, and methods required to optimize the "collection, storage, retrieval, [and] communication ... of health-related data, [[information]], and knowledge." Health informatics is applied to the areas of nursing, clinical care, dentistry, pharmacy, public health, occupational therapy, and biomedical research. Health informatics resources include not only computers but also clinical guidelines, formal medical terminologies, and information and communication systems.

Worldwide use of technology in medicine began in the early 1950s with the rise of computers. Medical informatics research units began to appear during the 1970s in Poland and in the U.S., with medical informatics conferences springing up as early as 1974. Since then the development of high-quality health informatics research, education, and infrastructure has been the goal of the U.S. and the European Union. Hundreds of datasets, publications, guidelines, specifications, meetings, conferences, and organizations around the world continue to shape what health informatics is today.

"Sigma metrics as a valuable tool for effective analytical performance and quality control planning in the clinical laboratory: A retrospective study"

For the release of precise and accurate reports of routine tests, its necessary to follow a proper quality management system (QMS) in the clinical laboratory. As one of the most popular QMS tools for process improvement, Six Sigma techniques and tools have been accepted widely in the laboratory testing process. Six Sigma gives an objective assessment of analytical methods and instrumentation, measuring the outcome of a process on a scale of 0 to 6. Poor outcomes are measured in terms of defects per million opportunities (DPMO). To do the performance assessment of each clinical laboratory analyte by Six Sigma analysis and to plan and chart out a better, customized quality control (QC) plan for each analyte, according to its own sigma value ...
