The American Nurses Association is warning that eliminating support for the training and research offered by the National Institute of Nursing Research could be devastating to the public, as many programs support specialties such as maternal and mental health. 

Researchers tracked nearly 1,000 SAVR patients, presenting eight-year data at the Heart Valve Society’s annual meeting in Cairo, Egypt. 

“Incorporating patient perspectives into AI implementation strategies ensures that these technologies improve and not hinder patient care."

One organization in the state informed staff members that more than 8,000 images are currently pending review. 

The 55-year-old patient woke up experiencing chest pain one morning and an ambulance was called. He was dead just a few hours later. His family's lawsuit argued that delays in care, communication errors and other issues were directly responsible for his death.

Such “scanxiety” can have a detrimental effect on exam quality, delay care and necessitate additional imaging, experts write in the Journal of Radiology Nursing. 

AI may finally end the paper chase caused by prior authorization. Or it may worsen it. 

Increased demand for interventional procedures has inevitably resulted in more patients with complex medical needs entering the IR suite.
