Summary
Patients generally support artificial intelligence (AI) in healthcare and sharing health data for AI research, especially with trusted institutions like the NHS. However, public engagement is crucial for addressing privacy concerns and ensuring AI integration into clinical practice.
Area of Science:
- Medical Informatics
- Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
- Health Data Research
Background:
- Artificial intelligence (AI) requires substantial health data for algorithm development and validation.
- Understanding patient perspectives on health data sharing for AI is crucial for successful implementation.
Purpose of the Study:
- To assess patient awareness of health data research.
- To gauge patient opinions on sharing health data for AI research.
- To evaluate patient views on AI technology in healthcare data.
Main Methods:
- A cross-sectional survey was conducted with 408 patients at a UK multisite teaching hospital.
- Data collected included patient views on health data sharing for research and AI use in healthcare data.
Main Results:
- Most patients had low prior AI knowledge but were comfortable sharing data with the NHS (77.9%) and universities (65.7%), less so with commercial organizations (26.4%).
- A majority endorsed AI research on health data (87.4%) and imaging (86.4%) in academic settings, provided privacy and consent concerns were addressed.
Conclusions:
- Patient perceptions and understanding of AI in health data research vary significantly.
- Increased public engagement and dialogue are essential for the acceptance and integration of AI in clinical practice.

Data collection gathers information needed to make accurate judgments about a patient's present condition. During a health history interview, subjective data is collected from the patient, their caregivers, or family members, and objective data is collected through observations and physical assessment. Patients are the primary source of subjective data. Thus information gathered from patients through interviews, observations, and physical examination is primary data. Secondary sources of...

Often, psychologists develop surveys as a means of gathering data. Surveys are lists of questions to be answered by research participants, and can be delivered as paper-and-pencil questionnaires, administered electronically, or conducted verbally. Generally, the survey itself can be completed in a short time, and the ease of administering a survey makes it easy to collect data from a large number of people.
