Overview
- The Clinical Decision Support application in AI is of major support or benefit to the outcome of patient care. This application can assist healthcare providers to identify potential diagnoses, risks, or treatment options while carrying out their care.
- AI should complement rather than replace clinical judgement because inaccurate data, algorithmic bias, or overreliance on automated recommendations can negatively affect patient .
AI can improve the decision-making process as it is able to quickly process large amounts of patient’s data that may be difficult to recognize manually. For example, an AI-supported system can alert a provider when a patient's laboratory results, medications, or symptoms indicate a potential safety concern.
