In this final installment of our three-part series on artificial intelligence in emergency medicine, we explore the rapid expansion of AI and its implications for clinical practice. In previous episodes, we explored how AI is revolutionizing tasks like diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient monitoring. In this final chapter, guest expert, Dr. Brian Patterson, joins us to discuss how to safely integrate AI into clinical practice. We recap insights from previous episodes, including AI’s transformative potential and real-world applications, while diving into the challenges and regulatory efforts shaping this exploding field. Whether you’re an AI skeptic or an early adopter, this episode unpacks what you need to know about integrating AI safely and effectively into emergency medicine.
