Critical care data contain information about the most physiologically fragile patients in the hospital, who require a significant level of monitoring. However, medical devices used for patient monitoring suffer from measurement biases that have been largely underreported. This article explores sources of bias in commonly used clinical devices, including pulse oximeters, thermometers, and sphygmomanometers. Further, it provides a framework for mitigating these biases and key principles to achieve more equitable health care delivery...

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...

Predictive analytics based on artificial intelligence (AI) offer clinicians the opportunity to leverage big data available in electronic health records (EHR) to improve clinical decision-making, and thus patient outcomes. Despite this, many barriers exist to facilitating trust between clinicians and AI-based tools, limiting its current impact. Potential solutions are available at both the local and national level. It will take a broad and diverse coalition of stakeholders, from health-care systems, EHR vendors, and clinical educators to regulators, researchers and the patient community, to help facilitate this trust so that the promise of AI in health care can be realized...

Syndromic conditions, such as sepsis, are commonly encountered in the intensive care unit. Although these conditions are easy for clinicians to grasp, these conditions may limit the performance of machine-learning algorithms. Individual hospital practice patterns may limit external generalizability. Data missingness is another barrier to optimal algorithm performance and various strategies exist to mitigate this. Recent advances in data science, such as transfer learning, conformal prediction, and continual learning, may improve generalizability of machine-learning algorithms in critically ill patients...

The practice of medicine is characterized by uncertainty, and the findings of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) are meant to help curb that uncertainty. Traditional RCTs, however, have many limitations. To overcome some of these limitations, new trial paradigms rooted in the origins of evidence-based medicine are beginning to disrupt the traditional mold. These new designs recognize uncertainty permeates medical decision making and aim to capitalize on modern health system infrastructure to integrate investigation as a component of care delivery...

Data science has the potential to greatly enhance efforts to translate evidence into practice in critical care. The intensive care unit is a data-rich environment enabling insight into both patient-level care patterns and clinician-level treatment patterns. By applying artificial intelligence to these novel data sources, implementation strategies can be tailored to individual patients, individual clinicians, and individual situations, revealing when evidence-based practices are missed and facilitating context-sensitive clinical decision support...

Electronic medical records (EMRs) constitute the electronic version of all medical information included in a patient's paper chart. The electronic health record (EHR) technology has witnessed massive expansion in developed countries and to a lesser extent in underresourced countries during the last 2 decades. We will review factors leading to this expansion, how the emergence of EHRs is affecting several health-care stakeholders; some of the growing pains associated with EHRs with a particular emphasis on the delivery of care to the critically ill; and ongoing developments on the path to improve the quality of research, health-care delivery, and stakeholder satisfaction...

Perioperative morbidity and mortality are significantly associated with both static and dynamic perioperative factors. The studies investigating static perioperative factors have been reported; however, there are a limited number of previous studies and data sets analyzing dynamic perioperative factors, including physiologic waveforms, despite its clinical importance. To fill the gap, the authors introduce a novel large size perioperative data set: Machine Learning Of physiologic waveforms and electronic health Record Data (MLORD) data set...

The rapid adoption of electronic health record (EHR) systems in US hospitals from 2008 to 2014 produced novel data elements for analysis. Concurrent innovations in computing architecture and machine learning (ML) algorithms have made rapid consumption of health data feasible and a powerful engine for clinical innovation. In critical care research, the net convergence of these trends has resulted in an exponential increase in outcome prediction research. In the following article, we explore the history of outcome prediction in the intensive care unit (ICU), the growing use of EHR data, and the rise of artificial intelligence and ML (AI) in critical care...

Critical care units-designed for concentrated and specialized care-came from multiple parallel advances in medical, surgical, and nursing techniques and training taking advantage of new therapeutic technologies. Regulatory requirements and government policy impacted design and practice. After WWII, medical practice and education promoted further specialization. Hospitals offered newer, more extreme, and specialized surgeries and anesthesia enabled more complex procedures. ICUs developed in the 1950s, providing a recovery room's level of observation and specialized nursing to serve the critically ill, whether medical or surgical...

The modern cardiothoracic intensive care unit (CTICU) developed as a result of advances in critical care, cardiology, and cardiac surgery. Patients undergoing cardiac surgery today are sicker, frailer, and have more complex cardiac and noncardiac morbidities. CTICU providers need to understand postoperative implications of different surgical procedures, complications that can occur in CTICU patients, resuscitation protocols for cardiac arrest, and diagnostic and therapeutic interventions such as transesophageal echocardiography and mechanical circulatory support...

This article gives a historical perspective of visitation in the intensive care unit (ICU) since the establishment of critical care units. Initially, visitors were not allowed because it was thought to be harmful to the patient. Despite the evidence, ICUs with open visitation have consistently been in the minority and the COVID-19 pandemic halted progress in this area. Virtual visitation was introduced during the pandemic to maintain family presence, but limited evidence suggests that this is not equivalent to in-person visitation...
