Implementing Artificial Intelligence: Assessing the Cost and Benefits of Algorithmic Decision-Making in Critical Care.

This article provides an overview of the most useful artificial intelligence algorithms developed in critical care, followed by a comprehensive outline of the benefits and limitations. We begin by describing how nurses and physicians might be aided by these new technologies. We then move to the possible changes in clinical guidelines with personalized medicine that will allow tailored therapies and probably will increase the quality of the care provided to patients. Finally, we describe how artificial intelligence models can unleash researchers' minds by proposing new strategies, by increasing the quality of clinical practice, and by questioning current knowledge and understanding.
