The progress in artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping patient care, across various dimensions, from facilitating faster discharge to curating treatment plans and suggesting lifestyle changes.
Researchers at UPMC and the University of Pittsburgh created and deployed a machine learning algorithm that flags patients who are at high risk for postsurgical complications. The research team recently published research validating the tool in JAMA Network Open — the study found that the health system’s model outperforms the industry standard.
Moon Surgical recently raised $55.5 million for its robotic surgical assistant, which has earned regulatory clearance in the U.S. and European Union. The startup also appointed Fred Moll, founder of Intuitive Surgical and Auris Health, as independent chair of its board.
