Summary
Pediatric healthcare faces distinct challenges due to the intricate dynamics involving children, parents, and caregivers. Dr. Natalie Pageler from Stanford Medicine Children’s Health highlights the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in improving the doctor-patient experience by capturing nuanced interactions often missed by traditional assessment methods. AI tools, like ambient scribes, require careful evaluation to ensure they enhance care in pediatric settings, particularly in the busy atmosphere of exam rooms. These technologies could allow clinicians to prioritize direct engagement with families during consultations, potentially improving patient satisfaction.
