The articles included in this special issue of on informatics represent distinct elements of health informatics relevant to the implementation and provision of clinical services. Informatics is the collection, analysis, and application of data for direct care decisions in health care and an interdisciplinary field that brings medicine together with computer, cognitive, and social sciences. We frame the contributions of the included articles within the framework of the Quadruple Aim for health care: better outcomes, lower costs, improved patient satisfaction, and improved work life of health care providers. The examples provided aim to show how health informatics provides opportunities to improve care delivered to patients at individual and system levels while both identifying and closing gaps in research addressing the management and use of information generated in the course of delivering health care. The articles in this special issue reflect the cutting edge of health care, research and technology, where there is as much risk as there is promise of delivering stability to our dynamic health care system.

本特刊中的文章代表了与临床服务实施和提供相关的信息学的不同元素。信息学是对医疗保健中直接护理决策的数据的收集、分析和应用，是将医学与计算机、认知和社会科学结合起来的跨学科领域。我们将所包含文章的贡献框架设定在医疗保健的四重目标内：更好的结果、更低的成本、提高患者满意度和改善医疗保健提供者的工作生活。提供的示例旨在展示信息学如何为改善患者的个人和系统护理提供机会，同时在识别和弥合在管理和使用在提供医疗保健过程中生成的信息方面的研究差距。本期特刊中的文章反映了医疗保健、研究和技术的前沿，在为我们动态的医疗保健系统提供稳定性方面，既有风险，也有希望。（PsycInfo 数据库记录（c）2021 APA，保留所有权利）。
