How Artificial Intelligence (AI) Helps In The Healthcare Industry?

Artificial Intelligence performs all the tasks quickly and rapidly that humans take time to perform. In today’s era, this is being used in every domain. Computers can also achieve human-like competence in image recognizing and also enabled success in speech recognition and natural language processing.

The Healthcare industry is an abundance of data. The quality of, accessibility of these resources is a challenge. Health data have privacy issues associated with it. Lack of interoperability of electronic health record systems and the inability to collect the relevant social & environmental information. These are some issues faced by the healthcare industry.

role of ai in healthcare is swiftly entering the healthcare industry and performs major tasks from automating drudgery and daily tasks in medical practice to managing patients and resources. AI in the healthcare industry mainly refers to doctors and hospitals accessing large data sets of information. This includes treatment methods, their results, survival rates, and speed of care, and geographical location. This new computing power can detect and analyze the trends from the data and even make predictions through machine learning that’s designed to identify potential health outcomes.

Benefits of Artificial Intelligence in the Healthcare Industry

Human Performance Boundaries are Pushed

The visual impressive use of medical AI is to do the things that humans cannot do. An artificial intelligence algorithm can improve the care of the patients beyond the current situation of medical performance.    

Normalize Medical Knowledge

AI can help to share the knowledge and performance of experts to the providers who lack that expertise. This type of normalization is important because highly skilled experts are rare compared to the need in many areas. 

Medical Practice Drudgery Automation

AI has automated many of the tasks on which providers spend a large amount of time dealing with electronic medical records, reading screens, and typing on a keyboard. When the AI system queues up the information in the patient’s record including this will increase the facetime between doctor and patient. 

Resource Management

AI can help to allocate resources and shape the industry. This AI system even helps to identify which department needs more staffing, and the most controversial topic of revenue-maximizing practice.  

Some tech innovation in the healthcare industry using AI

Robotic Reflection

In 2017 University of Bristol study found that children suffering from Autism have an issue in distinguishing facial expression and in that year Dell technologies launched Milo, a 2-foot tall robot that helps children from ages 5 to 17 years to identify signs of emotion.

Connecting ALS Patients 

Eye-tracking glasses have developed to help people who lost the ability to speak. People can type with their eyes onto a monitor screen that will vocalize the patient’s thoughts through computerized decoding.

Detecting Afib

Atrial fibrillation can make heart attacks or strokes more likely and according to research from Stanford University shows that AI software can identify more accurately arrhythmias from an electrocardiogram (EKG) than a human expert. 

 

 

Artificial Intelligence in  Healthcare pass all the tests and even real-world tests that they could become significant partners for humans in shaping modern health care. There are many things humans and machines can together do and this is a powerful package.
