AB  - The  field  of  biomedical  informatics  can  be  defined  as  the  scientific  discipline  that  deals  with  biomedical  information,  data,  and  knowledge  including  their  storage,  retrieval,  and  optimal  use  for  problem  solving  and  decision  making.1  The  fields  of  bioinformatics,  imaging  informatics,  clinical  informatics,  and  public  health  informatics  are  all  grouped  under  this  larger  umbrella.1,2  Most  relevant  to  this  chapter,  clinical  informatics  is  motivated  by  applied  problems  in  clinical  care  encompassing  both  patient-specific  information  and  knowledge-based  information.  The  electronic  medical  record  is  an  application  based  on  patient-specific  information,  whereas  MEDLINE,  which  is  provided  by  the  National  Library  of  Medicine,  is  a  key  resource  for  health-related  knowledge  retrieval.2  A  clinical  decision  support  system  (CDSS)  is  a  computer  program  designed  to  help  clinicians  make  diagnoses  or  management  decisions3  and  often  relies  on  both  patient-specific  and  knowledge-based  information.2
