Advances in artificial intelligence over the last year are starting to become a reality in many medical practices. Medical documentation is certainly not immune to these changes and AI scribe software vendors promise to revolutionize the way we document and summarize patient encounters. This collaborative session will allow for discussion of the practical considerations and potential concerns related to the use of AI for note generation in patient encounters.
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a life-threatening clinical syndrome prevalent in hospitalized patients (10% to 15% affected), especially among critically ill patients (>50% affected), and has exceeded the annual incidence of myocardial infarction. AKI patients are at much higher risk for developing poor long-term outcomes including incident and progressive chronic kidney disease, cardiovascular disease, and death.

High-dimensional data from procedural recordings are increasingly being leveraged by institutions for quality, safety, and efficiency. With advances in technology enabling high fidelity recordings and large scale analytics, the possible applications for this data continue to expand. Institutions must consider their data strategy and the ethical, legal, privacy, and insurance implications of recording clinical procedures.
An increasing number of studies have reported using natural language processing (NLP) to assist observational research by extracting clinical information from electronic health records (EHRs). Currently, no standardized reporting guidelines for NLP-assisted observational studies exist. The absence of detailed reporting guidelines may create ambiguity in the use of NLP-derived content, knowledge gaps in the current research reporting practices, and reproducibility challenges.
Several editors and authors of clinical research informatics textbooks and chapters will present developed topics in the CRI field and new topics in CRI compared to earlier editions of the books. Presenters will talk about the 3rd edition of Springer Clinical Research Informatics, the CRI chapter in the 5th edition of Springer Biomedical Informatics, and the CRI chapter in the 8th edition of Health Informatics.
AMIA Public Policy explains the typical federal government public commenting process and timeline, how AMIA fits within the government’s constraints, and how you can get involved. The presenters broke down AMIA’s process for developing a public comment letter with a step-by-step guide on where you fit in the timeline. Lastly [...]
