The application of artificial intelligence (AI) is often associated with the use of large amounts of data for the construction of AI models and algorithms. This data should ideally comply with the FAIR Data principles, i.e. being findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable. However, the handling of health data poses a particular challenge in this context. In this article, we highlight the challenges of the data usage for AI in medicine using the example of anaesthesia and intensive care medicine. We discuss the current situation but also the obstacles for a wider application of AI in medicine in Europe and give suggestions how to solve the different issues. The article covers different subjects like data protection, research data infrastructures and approval of medical products. Finally, this article shows how it can nevertheless be possible to establish a secure and at the same time effective handling of data for use in AI at the European level despite its unneglectable difficulties.

Outcomes With Radiation Therapy as Primary Treatment for Unresectable Cutaneous Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma.

Clin Oncol (R Coll Radiol)

December 2024

Radiation Oncology Network, Westmead Hospital, Westmead, NSW, Australia; Sydney Medical School, The University of Sydney, Camperdown, NSW 2006, Australia. Electronic address:

Aims: Unresectable cutaneous squamous cell cancer of the head and neck (HNcSCC) poses treatment challenges in elderly and comorbid patients. Radiation therapy (RT) is often employed for locoregional control. This study aimed to determine progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) outcomes achieved with upfront RT in unresectable HNcSCC.

Who is coming in? Evaluation of physician performance within multi-physician emergency departments.

Am J Emerg Med

January 2025

Department of Emergency Medicine, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA; Center for Outcomes Research and Evaluation, Yale University, New Haven, CT, USA.

Background: This study aimed to examine how physician performance metrics are affected by the speed of other attendings (co-attendings) concurrently staffing the ED.

Methods: A retrospective study was conducted using patient data from two EDs between January-2018 and February-2020. Machine learning was used to predict patient length of stay (LOS) conditional on being assigned a physician of average speed, using patient- and departmental-level variables.

National early warning score 2 plus non-invasive capnography and perfusion index to estimate poor outcomes in emergency departments.

Am J Emerg Med

January 2025

Faculty of Medicine, Universidad de Valladolid, Valladolid, Spain; Emergency Department, Hospital Clínico Universitario, Gerencia Regional de Salud de Castilla y León, Valladolid, Spain.

Background: The study of the inclusion of new variables in already existing early warning scores is a growing field. The aim of this work was to determine how capnometry measurements, in the form of end-tidal CO2 (ETCO2) and the perfusion index (PI), could improve the National Early Warning Score (NEWS2).

Methods: A secondary, prospective, multicenter, cohort study was undertaken in adult patients with unselected acute diseases who needed continuous monitoring in the emergency department (ED), involving two tertiary hospitals in Spain from October 1, 2022, to June 30, 2023.

Mild cognitive impairment (MCI) is a significant predictor of the early progression of Alzheimer's disease, and it can be used as an important indicator of disease progression. However, many existing methods focus mainly on the image itself when processing brain imaging data, ignoring other non-imaging data (e.g.
