Artificial intelligence and informatics in neonatal resuscitation

Neonatal intensive care unit resuscitative care continually evolves and increasingly relies on data. Data driven precision resuscitation care can be enabled by leveraging informatics tools and artificial intelligence. Despite technological advancements, these data are often underutilized due to suboptimal data capture, aggregation, and low adoption of artificial intelligence and analytic tools. This review describes the fundamentals and explores the evidence behind informatics and artificial intelligence tools supporting neonatal intensive care unit resuscitative care, training and education. Key findings include the need for effective interface design for accurate data capture followed by storage and translation to wisdom using analytics and artificial intelligence tools. This review addresses the issues of data privacy, bias, liability and ethical frameworks when adopting these tools. While these emerging technologies hold great promise to improve resuscitation, further study of these applications in neonatal population and awareness of informatics and artificial intelligence principles among clinicians is imperative.
