Using routinely collected #ICU data? #AI models may assist in diagnosis, treatment & complex care, but before using for #datascience several challenges: quality, lacking long term outcomes, inherent bias, need for temporal updates, should be considered. 🔗 bit.ly/4fC71ks

UKにおけるICU心エコー実施体制の調査 96%のICUに心エコー認定医はいるが,1日通して1時間以内に緊急心エコー実施可能な体制が整っている施設はわずか15% 本邦でもNPやレジデントのFOCUSスキル獲得はICU内外での心エコーへのアクセスに大いに貢献してくれるように思います。
