Deep learning-based smart speaker to confirm surgical sites for cataract surgeries: A pilot study.

PloS one
Wrong-site surgeries can occur due to the absence of an appropriate surgical time-out. However, during a time-out, surgical participants are unable to review the patient's charts due to their aseptic hands. To improve the conditions in surgical time-...

Detecting adverse drug reactions in discharge summaries of electronic medical records using Readpeer.

International journal of medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Hospital discharge summaries offer a potentially rich resource to enhance pharmacovigilance efforts to evaluate drug safety in real-world clinical practice. However, it is infeasible for experts to read through all discharge summaries to ...

The future is coming: promising perspectives regarding the use of machine learning in renal transplantation.

Jornal brasileiro de nefrologia
INTRODUCTION: The prediction of post transplantation outcomes is clinically important and involves several problems. The current prediction models based on standard statistics are very complex, difficult to validate and do not provide accurate predic...

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: In medical examinations doctors use various techniques in order to provide to the patients an accurate analysis of their actual state of health. One of the commonly used methodologies is the x-ray screening. This examination...

Artificial Intelligence in Medical Practice: The Question to the Answer?

The American journal of medicine
Computer science advances and ultra-fast computing speeds find artificial intelligence (AI) broadly benefitting modern society-forecasting weather, recognizing faces, detecting fraud, and deciphering genomics. AI's future role in medical practice rem...

What are the six degree-of-freedom errors of a robotically-machined femoral cavity in total hip arthroplasty and are they clinically important? An in-vitro study.

Medical engineering & physics
Errors during a robot-assisted THA may result in a femoral cavity with position and orientation different than planned. This can lead to a femoral component placement that inaccurately sets a patient's femoral anteversion (FA), femoral offset (FO), a...

The Unintended Harm of Artificial Intelligence (AI): Exploring Critical Incidents of AI in Healthcare.

Studies in health technology and informatics
Artificial intelligence (AI) has been utilized in healthcare for years, presenting various risks. However, there is a gap in understanding AI incidents, particularly their impacts and associated risks. This study provides an overview of AI-related in...
