Abstract

OBJECTIVES: Congested hospitals are increasingly common. Electronic health (eHealth) and artificial intelligence (AI)-based tools may improve in-hospital patient flow, however their implementation into practice varies. This study aims to identify and synthesize evidence on implementing eHealth and AI-based tools to manage in-hospital patient flow.
