Article Abstract
Hospitals are looking to AI and other innovative applications to help alleviate provider burden and dissatisfaction associated with clinical documentation in oncology. Ambient artificial intelligence (AI) scribes are a promising technology to address these issues. However, they generally have not been optimized for oncology. This study aimed to evaluate an ambient AI scribe application with oncology providers to determine opportunities and potential challenges.This prospective pilot study of a scribe application was conducted over 4 months at a high-volume cancer center in New York City. Qualitative (interviews) and quantitative (surveys and utilization) data were collected to assess adoption, feasibility, acceptability, and appropriateness. The analysis included descriptive statistics and thematic content analysis.Thirty-one providers were included across oncology specialties. Twenty-five providers used the application at least once; of these, 18 completed a survey and 21 completed an interview. Providers used the application in 620 (13.9%) out of 4,449 in-person outpatient visits. Out of 18 survey respondents, 17 (94%) indicated they used the AI-drafted content at least sometimes, demonstrating feasibility. For acceptability, 11 (61%) indicated a moderate, strong, or very strong desire for continued access to the technology. All providers interviewed advocated for continued investment in ambient technology. Metrics around appropriateness showed variability based on its accuracy in capturing complex clinical scenarios and in the types of patients the technology was used with. For example, providers used the technology for 21.1% of new visits but only 12.2% of follow-up visits.This study demonstrated the potential for ambient AI scribes to be useful in oncology. Future research should evaluate the use of this technology at scale as it may realize workflow efficiencies and improve the clinical documentation process.

Background: Older adults are more vulnerable to severe consequences caused by seasonal influenza. Although seasonal influenza vaccination (SIV) is effective and free vaccines are available, the SIV uptake rate remained inadequate among people aged 65 years or older in Hong Kong, China. There was a lack of studies evaluating ChatGPT in promoting vaccination uptake among older adults.

Background: Rates of loneliness have risen sharply since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, largely due to disruptions in social relationships and daily routines, with college students experiencing some of the greatest increases. While prevention programs targeting loneliness have been developed, their success has been limited. One promising approach may lie in enhancing the quality of existing relationships rather than simply increasing social interactions during periods of acute loneliness.

Background: Assisted vaginal birth is a lifesaving procedure where health workers use special devices to expedite birth vaginally when some complications emerge, such as due to prolonged labor. When the use of assisted vaginal birth is possible and appropriate, it provides benefits over cesarean section. These benefits include shorter recovery, reduced hospital stays, lower risks of complications, cost savings, and greater likelihood of vaginal birth in future pregnancies.

This study tested the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of an intervention combining peer recovery coaching and CBT4CBT-buprenorphine (CBT4CBT+RC) to reduce nonprescribed drug use and increase buprenorphine retention.
Methods: A randomized trial conducted from December 15, 2020, to November 24, 2021, compared an 8-week CBT4CBT+RC intervention to treatment as usual (TAU).
