That puts Ottawa’s researchers and health providers at the forefront of what many say is the coming AI revolution in health care, according to Dr. Doug Manuel, who heads the TD Artificial Intelligence in Medicine hub at The Ottawa Hospital.
“This is our strength, we have a deep understanding of what it takes to get algorithms into practice. It is in our DNA, we have been doing it for so long.” Razak said AI hasn’t yet significantly influenced the way care is delivered at patient bedsides, but he expects things to change in the next five years. Among projects already underway are the use of artificial intelligence to predict who will develop Type 2 diabetes and AI to predict which patients are at highest risk to be transferred to intensive care and have their conditions deteriorate.
Work is underway to expand that application of AI in cardiology, among other projects. They include a project by Dr. Chris Sun, of the heart institute and uOttawa’s Telfer School of Management. He is using big data to help make sure defibrillators are placed in parts of cities where people are more likely to experience cardiac arrest. His work looks at risk predictors for cardiac arrest and placement of automatic defibrillators in Boston, said Liu.
