Just a few weeks ago, we shared that clinicians at UMCG and Elisabeth-TweeSteden Ziekenhuis (ETZ) became the first in the world to use generative AI-powered patient summaries in Epic. As a follow-up, researchers at UMCG and ETZ published a study on the AI-generated summaries, finding them to be comparable to physician-created summaries in terms of completeness, correctness, and trustworthiness. These findings, they write, suggest that AI summaries can be “effective in reducing clinicians’ administrative burden without compromising summary quality.” Read more: https://lnkd.in/gv475zaN #healthcare #healthIT #AI
Epic Gordon Mann - Will you also add a tool to help us patients prepare for doctors visit? If interested, here's some articles I published - https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/ditch-notes-talk-ai-my-revolutionary-doctors-visit-tom-hlzgc/ and https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/30-ways-generative-ai-like-bard-can-help-patients-you-tom-pswuc/ - The patient's summary could be integrated/merged with the clinician summary, and possibly use AI/EHR, to give even more insights into the best personalized diagnosis and treatment plan. I'm here in Wisconsin if you want to chat more about this. Keep up the great work.

Currently available as a preprint and under review at The Lancet Digital Medicine! 😁 Great work by Rosanne Schoonbeek, Charlotte B., Stephanie Klein Nagelvoort Schuit, Mandy Aalderink, Tom van der Laan and Job Doornberg, to name a few! More exciting collaborative research between UMCG and Elisabeth-TweeSteden Ziekenhuis (ETZ) coming up! 👊

Reduction of the administrative burden is one of the key drivers in the digital transformation of health care, great to see that it is starting to get translated into the real life of health care professionals!

Outstanding work to Stephanie Klein Nagelvoort Schuit, Arthur Govaert, and the great team at UMCG for taking the global lead on demonstrating the value AI generated note summaries. Your research will give the rest of the world the confidence to adopt this great technology.
Excited to try this out as well.
Is your organization ready for this rapid change process?

1moWith many others I fully agree that there is a lot of potential in digital transformation and GenAI-assisted tools, especially to reduce administrative burdens, and therefore welcome studies that demonstrate this. However, I suggest not making claims of non-inferiority based on studies that do not appear to have used appropriate non-inferiority methodology (e.g. pre-specified non-inferiority margins and corresponding confidence intervals, etc.). Unfortunately, at least the paper referenced here appears to lack this. This could ultimately jeopardize the trust that is urgently needed for the acceptance of the implementation of such tools.
