摘要
Informatics describes the study and use of processes for obtaining and utilizing data. In the clinical context, these data are then used to inform and educate providers to improve patient care. In the current digital age, informatic solutions can help clinicians to understand past or current quality issues (afferent tools), to benchmark personal performance against national averages (feedback tools), and to disseminate information to encourage best practice and quality care (efferent tools). There are countless examples of how these tools can be adapted for use in obstetric anesthesia, with evidence to support their implementation. This article thus aimed to summarize the many ways in which informatics can help clinicians to harness the power of data to improve quality and safety in obstetric anesthesia.
