Artificial intelligence helps doctors predict patients' risk of dying, study finds: 'Sense of urgency'
Fox News contributor Dr. Marc Siegel weighs in on how artificial intelligence can change the patient-doctor relationship on'America's Newsroom.' With research showing that only 22% of Americans keep a written record of their end-of-life wishes, a team at OSF HealthCare in Illinois is using artificial intelligence to help physicians determine which patients have a higher chance of dying during their hospital stay. The team developed an AI model that is designed to predict a patient's risk of death within five to 90 days after admission to the hospital, according to a press release from OSF. The goal is for the clinicians to be able to have important end-of-life discussions with these patients. "It's a goal of our organization that every single patient we serve would have advanced care planning discussions documented, so we could deliver the care that they wish -- especially at a sensitive time like the end of their life, when they may not be able to communicate with us because of their clinical situation," said lead study author Dr. Jonathan Handler, OSF HealthCare senior fellow of innovation, in an interview with Fox News Digital.

Artificial Intelligence helps doctors with critical measurement during pregnancy
For many expectant parents, the first opportunity to "meet" their baby comes at 20-weeks of pregnancy. The ultrasound scan performed at that time gives the parents a sense of the health of the growing fetus. The images produced in this important exam reveal the shape and structure of the head and brain, which are of particular interest because severe brain problems may become visible at this stage in the pregnancy. As the brain develops, maternal-fetal specialists keep a close eye on the cerebellum – the part of the brain that coordinates and regulates muscular activity. A healthy cerebellum can typically rule out fetal complications, such as spina bifida – a neural tube defect in which the spinal cord fails to properly develop.
