Abstract:
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.

Decision Making: P-value Method
First, a specific claim about the population parameter is proposed. The claim is based on the research question and is stated in a simple form. Further, an opposing statement to the claim is also stated. These statements can act as null and alternative hypotheses: a null hypothesis would be a neutral statement while the alternative hypothesis can...
