Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning in Cancer Pain: A Systematic Review.
J Pain Symptom Manage
December 2024
Background/objectives: Pain is a challenging multifaceted symptom reported by most cancer patients. This systematic review aims to explore applications of artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) in predicting pain-related outcomes and pain management in cancer.
Methods: A comprehensive search of Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE and Web of Science databases was conducted using terms: "Cancer," "Pain," "Pain Management," "Analgesics," "Artificial Intelligence," "Machine Learning," and "Neural Networks" published up to September 7, 2023.
Objective: Despite expanded guidelines, adolescent gonorrhea and chlamydia (GC/CT) screening rates remain low due to multiple psychosocial barriers and biases. This intervention aimed to improve screening and diagnosis rates at adolescent well visits by establishing a streamlined universal screening protocol for all patients ages 13-18 years old.
Methods: A universal sexually transmitted infection (STI) screening approach was introduced at an urban clinic affiliated with an academic medical center near Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (PA) in September 2018 for all adolescent well-visits.
Background/objective: Pain is a challenging multifaceted symptom reported by most cancer patients, resulting in a substantial burden on both patients and healthcare systems. This systematic review aims to explore applications of artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) in predicting pain-related outcomes and supporting decision-making processes in pain management in cancer.
Methods: A comprehensive search of Ovid MEDLINE, EMBASE and Web of Science databases was conducted using terms including "Cancer", "Pain", "Pain Management", "Analgesics", "Opioids", "Artificial Intelligence", "Machine Learning", "Deep Learning", and "Neural Networks" published up to September 7, 2023.
