- 为了确定人工智能是否在不同的人口群体中不同地改善了坚持.
- 评估AI在增强糖尿病患者健康公平方面的作用.
主要方法:
- 在一个大型医疗保健系统中对糖尿病成年患者的回顾性分析.
- 具有和没有自主人工智能 (非人工智能与人工智能交换站点) 的初级保健站点之间的坚持率的比较.
- 使用后勤回归进行差异差异分析,比较2019年和2021年的坚持数据.
主要成果:
- 与非人工智能网站相比,使用人工智能切换的网站的坚持率比非人工智能网站高36%.
- 黑人 / 非洲裔美国人的坚持在AI切换站点上增加了11.9%,与非AI站点的1.2%下降形成鲜明对比.
- 亚裔美国人和黑人/非洲裔美国人之间的坚持差距显著缩小,从15.6%降至3.5%.
结论:
- 在一个大型医疗保健系统中真正部署自主人工智能明显改善了对DED查的遵守,这是一个关键的医疗保健有效性数据和信息集 (HEDIS) 措施.
- 自主人工智能增强了患者获得DED测试的机会,并促进了健康公平,特别有利于历史上弱势群体.

Issues And Trends In Healthcare Delivery System
5.6K
The issues and trends in healthcare delivery are constantly changing. The COVID-19 pandemic is one recent issue that wreaked havoc on healthcare systems, causing a shortage of healthcare workers, high demand for medicines and supplies, and increased medical expenditure due to a lack of insurance. Other issues include rising healthcare costs and care fragmentation.

Diabetes Mellitus: Overview and Type I Subtype
2.6K
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose levels due to inadequate insulin production, insulin resistance, or both. The condition affects millions worldwide and can significantly impact their health and quality of life.
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. As a result, the body is unable to produce sufficient insulin, and individuals with...

Current Trends in Nursing II
1.2K
Trends in nursing are multifactorial and associated with changes in society, within the nursing profession, and in other professions. Notably, telehealth and remote nursing contribute to successful healthcare delivery for numerous patients and help reduce stress for nurses due to nursing shortages. Nurses can reach patients, monitor their conditions, and interact with them using computers, audio, visual accessories, and telephones—for example, remote patient monitoring systems. Likewise,...

Diabetes: Management and Pharmacotherapy
277
The therapy for diabetes aims to alleviate hyperglycemia-related symptoms, prevent acute metabolic decompensation, and reduce chronic end-organ complications. Glycemic control is evaluated through short-term (self-monitoring, continuous glucose monitoring) and long-term (A1c, fructosamine) metrics, enabling near real-time tracking of blood glucose levels and reflecting glycemic control over specific time frames.

Diabetes Mellitus: Type 2 and Gestational
2.3K
Type 2 diabetes, characterized by insulin resistance, arises when the insulin receptors on cells lose responsiveness to insulin, diminishing the cell's capacity to take up glucose, resulting in elevated blood glucose levels. To receive a diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes, a series of blood glucose tests are necessary to assess whether the blood glucose falls within normal parameters. If the result is out of the normal range, a patient may be diagnosed as prediabetic or diabetic, depending on the...
