Materials and Methods: This research employs a comprehensive analysis approach, utilizing complex health information systems, clinical images, and intricate language. It examines the current utilization of AI in healthcare, focusing on its effects on patient and clinician involvement in healthcare decision-making. The assessment emphasizes key skill areas of Health Informatics, including IT, health information systems, security and privacy, telemedicine, m-Health, consumer health informatics, and clinical informatics.
Findings: The study identifies several significant findings regarding the role of AI in healthcare. It highlights how AI technologies contribute to the generation of unstructured data, posing challenges for research and analysis. Additionally, the research underscores AI's ability to enhance personalized medical guidance, identify complex illnesses, forecast negative health occurrences, and improve patient outcomes. Moreover, it discusses AI's impact on social media and mobile apps, emphasizing its potential to gather valuable insights from online sources for a deeper understanding of patient needs and behaviors.
Implications to Theory, Practice and Policy: Based on the findings, the research suggests several recommendations for future research and progress in the field of AI usage in healthcare. These recommendations may include further exploration of AI applications in healthcare decision-making, addressing challenges related to unstructured data, enhancing security and privacy measures, and leveraging AI for improving patient outcomes and clinician engagement. Additionally, the study emphasizes the importance of ongoing research and development to maximize the potential benefits of AI in healthcare.
