Thank you to @MarkKelly_News for the insightful interview on our recent study @VUMChealth.
With constant talk around #AI, it’s critical we test tools like these in the real-world and in clinical practice.

Developing risk models in healthcare is hard, implementing them effectively is harder!
We test two designs of a system prompting doctors to consider screening for suicide prevention driven by an automated model

In clinical practice, there are lots of distractions (pagers, messages, phone calls). So interrupting doctors shouldn’t be done lightly.
In areas where interruptions wouldn’t be tolerated, less interruptive versions of tools like these might still make more sense.

Much more to do including testing such systems at larger scale and refining them to prompt actions beyond screening in general.
These types of trials are critical to separate the hype around AI from their usefulness in practice!

Can a novel #DeepLearning algorithm to predict #sepsis in the emergency department improve care?
Researchers from @UCSDHealth show proper implementation of the model can save lives of sepsis patients and improve quality metrics.

I’ve given my share of interviews but Bhav, an undergrad, outdid the pros
He was thoughtful, had CLEARLY done his homework, & asked the right tough questions
This great piece by @BhavJain_, @SimarSBajaj shows it

Honored that our paper led by Jennifer Hong has won the Diana Forsythe Award at #AMIA2022. Forsythe was a groundbreaking anthropologist in informatics who wrote about women in tech, patient-centric informatics, and AI ethics long before they were cool. academic.oup.com/jamia/artic…
