Clinical Requirement:

PLEASE RESPOND TO THE FOLLOWING CLASSMATE'S POST IN 50 WORDS OR MORE: Option 2 - In your work setting, which future trend(s) are likely to have the largest effect on patient care and related information systems?   Talking about future trends that will affect patient care, I would like to talk about artificial intelligence (AI). According to Regis College (2023), the use of AI allows medical personnel to collect, analyze, and use vast amounts of health data to guide decision-making. Clinical decision support tools such as alerts in EHRs can be used to predict risk and provide data to support diagnosis or treatment. Guided decision trees can improve care and prevent errors. Remote sensor technologies are also part of AI. Nursing has begun leveraging remote sensor technology to improve patient care. AI can help gather data and facilitate patient monitoring, as well as recommend treatments based on the data. This is especially helpful in managing chronic illness. For example, mobile heart monitors are part of the growing demand for mobile health care. This technology generates a great deal of data for health care personnel which AI can help interpret. Voice assistance and robotics will also be in demand in the future. A voice assistant can remind patients to take medication or monitor their blood pressure. Robotics can be used to augment patient care and patients’ movements.   References   Regis College (2023, August 1).
