Article Synopsis
  • The integration of AI in anesthesiology is on the rise, but its practical application in clinical settings is still limited; this study aims to highlight the existing gap between research and real-world use.
  • A systematic review of randomized controlled trials revealed eight studies involving AI-assisted anesthetic management, totaling 568 patients, but most trials had small sample sizes and produced inconclusive results on hypotension-related outcomes.
  • The findings indicate that research on AI in anesthesiology is still developing, suggesting the need for future studies that consider the complexities of clinical practice for effective implementation.

Digitalisation of the healthcare sector promises to revolutionise patient healthcare globally. From the different technologies, virtual tools including artificial intelligence, blockchain, virtual, and augmented reality, to name but a few, are providing significant benefits to patients and the pharmaceutical sector alike, ranging from improving access to clinicians and medicines, as well as improving real-time diagnoses and treatments. Indeed, it is envisioned that such technologies will communicate together in real-time, as well as with their physical counterparts, to create a large-scale, cyber healthcare system.

The impact of a telehealth web-based solution on neurosurgery triage and consultation.

Telemed J E Health

November 2010

Center for Telehealth and Cybermedicine Research, University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87106, USA.

Introduction: To enhance the quality of neurosurgery consultations, triage, and transport decisions between a Level I trauma service neurosurgery program at the University of New Mexico Hospital and referring hospitals, a secure Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)-compliant Web-based system was developed, to which digital neurological images could be sent for review by a neurosurgeon for consultation or patient transfer. Based upon prior experience of neurosurgery, it was predicted that 25% of transfer requests would be avoided if the neurosurgeons reviewed the computerized tomography scans at the time of a transfer request. In addition, it was predicted in 25% of the case that changes in management recommendations would take place independent of the transfer decision.

Rapid advances in telehealth development and adoption are increasing the spectrum of information and communication technologies that can be applied not only to individual patient care but more broadly to population health as well. Participants in this breakout session were asked to address, from their diverse perspectives, a series of questions relating to the current and potential uses of telehealth applications and networks for public health and emergency/disaster preparedness and response systems. Participants identified several gaps in current understanding and research emphasis.
