Comprehensive Review Maps AI Applications Across Emergency Medicine Domains
New comprehensive review identifies proven AI applications across emergency care continuum, from prehospital triage to outcome prediction, while highlighting critical implementation challenges.AI Model Predicts Patient Agitation Risk in Emergency Departments
Yale School of Medicine researchers have developed an artificial intelligence prediction model that can identify emergency department patients at risk of becoming agitated before symptoms develop, representing a significant advance in proactive emergency care safety.
The study, published in JAMA Network Open and led by Associate Professor Ambrose Wong, analyzed over 3 million emergency department visits across nine hospitals in the northeastern United States between 2015 and 2022. The machine learning model successfully predicts patient agitation risk using 50 key features routinely collected during ED visits.
