professionals are now making use of more and more technology so that the patients can get
better care. The most popular area where the healthcare professionals are making use of
technology is in informatics. This refers to the way in which the health related informations
are managed and organized (Hebda, Hunter and Czar, 2020). Making use of electronic
medical records, devices collecting health related information and other such available
electronic information standards. The standards for different procedures and usage of surgical
informatics need to be defined as well as implemented properly. In surgery, informatics help
in achieving Operating Room of the Future (ORF) that includes encompassing processes,
storing as well as indexing various details related to biomedical or kinetic markers,
pathological or tissue recognition and other such vital information which can be retrieved by
surgeons as and when required (Gu, Li, Li & Liang, 2017). Operating room automation
system is being used in the operation theatres that are a combination of hardware and
software developed to establish control on multiple operating room devices through the
medium of a common interface.
Cerner and Epic are involved in the health information technology and develop
electronic health record software catering to organizations of different sizes. Cerner offers
software solutions that include analytics, clinical solutions, revenue cycle management,
services, population health management and interoperability. On the other hand Epic
provides patients experience, managed care, clinical, mobile device software, telehealth,
interoperability, revenue cycle management, government regulations and artificial
intelligence and analytics. Epic and Cerner are used for electronic health records and these
health records can be of help to the surgeons at the time of surgery (Hebda, Hunter and Czar,
2020). The data associated with previous medical history of the patient can be obtained from
these electronic health records that can help the surgeons in having a prior knowledge about
