Article Abstract

Objectives: To quantify utilization and impact on documentation time of a large language model-powered ambient artificial intelligence (AI) scribe.

Materials And Methods: This prospective quality improvement study was conducted at a large academic medical center with 45 physicians from 8 ambulatory disciplines over 3 months. Utilization and documentation times were derived from electronic health record (EHR) use measures.

Results: The ambient AI scribe was utilized in 9629 of 17 428 encounters (55.25%) with significant interuser heterogeneity. Compared to baseline, median time per note reduced significantly by 0.57 minutes. Median daily documentation, afterhours, and total EHR time also decreased significantly by 6.89, 5.17, and 19.95 minutes/day, respectively.

Discussion: An early pilot of an ambient AI scribe demonstrated robust utilization and reduced time spent on documentation and in the EHR. There was notable individual-level heterogeneity.

Conclusion: Large language model-powered ambient AI scribes may reduce documentation burden. Further studies are needed to identify which users benefit most from current technology and how future iterations can support a broader audience.

Contactless human-machine interfaces (C-HMIs) are revolutionizing artificial intelligence (AI)-driven domains, yet face application limitations due to narrow sensing ranges, environmental fragility, and structural rigidity. To address these obstacles, we developed a flexible photonic C-HMI (Flex-PCI) using flexible visible-blind near-infrared organic photodetectors. In addition to its unprecedented performance across key metrics, including broad detection range (0.

Introduction: Occupational burnout among clinical care providers, due in part to documentation burden, has reached crisis level. This study measured the effect of using new clinical documentation software, an 'ambient clinical intelligence' (ACI) program, to reduce the documentation workload and improve provider wellbeing.

Methods: This was a randomised, control study with a step-wedge design.

Retinal degenerative diseases pose significant therapeutic challenges; however, optogenetic vision restoration offers a promising strategy that is independent of mutations and disease progression. Optogenetic tools consisting of photosensitive membrane proteins can be ectopically expressed in retinal cells, effectively converting them into artificial photoreceptors. This review outlines the development and application of optogenetic tools to restore light sensitivity in degenerated retinas.
