POV date July 2010 The biomedical model of medicine has been around since the mid nineteenth century as the predominant model used by physicians in diagnosing diseases.It has four core elements. According to the biomedical model, health constitutes the freedom from disease, pain, or defect, thus making the normal human condition healthy . The model s focus on the physical processes, such as the pathology , the biochemistry and the physiology of a disease, does not take into account the role of social factors or individual subjectivity. The model also overlooks the fact that the diagnosis that will effect treatment of the patient is a result of negotiation between doctor and patient. ref Annandale, The Sociology of Health and Medicine A Critical Introduction , Polity Press, 1998 ref It is however very limiting. By not taking into account society in general, the prevention of disease is omitted. Many diseases affecting first world countries nowadays, such as heart disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus are very much dependent on a person s actions and beliefs.

Predictive informatics PI is the combination of predictive modeling and Informatics academic field informatics applied to healthcare, pharmaceutical, life sciences and business industries. Predictive informatics enables researchers, analysts, physicians and decision makers to aggregate and analyze disparate types of data, recognize patterns and trends within that data, and make more informed decisions in an effort to preemptively alter future outcomes. Current uses of PI Healthcare Over the past decade the increased usage of electronic health records has produced vast amounts of clinical data that is now computable. Predictive informatics integrates this data with other datasets e.g., genotypic, phenotypic in centralized and standardized data repositories upon which predictive analytics may be conducted. Pharmaceuticals The biopharmaceutical industry uses predictive informatics a superset of chemoinformatics to integrate information resources to transform data into knowledge in order to make better decisions faster in the area of drug lead identification and optimization. Systems biology Scientists involved in systems biology employ predictive informatics to integrate complex data about the interactions in biological systems from diverse experimental sources. Other uses Predictive informatics and analytics are also used in financial services, insurance, telecommunications, retail, and travel industries.

Computational informatics, as a subfield of informatics, studies information using computational methodologies. Computational informatics can also be interpreted as the use of computational methods in the information sciences. Development From a historical viewpoint, medical informatics scientists also known as medical informaticians started to use artificial intelligence and Baysian statistical methods in diagnosis and medical decision making, as early as in the 1970s. An example is the MYCIN system developed at Stanford University . The field has since evolved to use a wide range of computational methods and to interact with all possible scientific and other disciplinary domains.
