Summary
Dr. Stephanie Lahr, president of Artisight, predicts that by 2025, artificial intelligence (AI) will play a crucial role in telemedicine, enhancing healthcare delivery through the integration of technologies like computer vision and voice recognition within a smart hospital platform. She anticipates healthcare organizations will move towards a sophisticated understanding of AI, allowing for improved clinical workflows and reduced administrative tasks for nurses, hence enabling more direct patient care. The evolution of virtual nursing will see AI serve as an intelligent assistant for real-time clinical decision-making and proactive patient monitoring. Additionally, the industry will establish comprehensive metrics to measure AI's impact on clinical outcomes and patient experience, shifting focus from basic usage statistics to more meaningful evaluations of AI's effectiveness in healthcare settings.
