How do nurses work in chronic management in the age of artificial intelligence? development and future prospects.

Abstract

AI is undeniably revolutionizing medical research and patient care across diverse fields. Chronic disease nursing care, a pivotal aspect of clinical management, has significantly reaped the benefits of AI across numerous dimensions. Understanding the operational principles of artificial intelligence before implementation is crucial, avoiding indiscriminate replacement of all tasks with AI. Nurses serve as the primary force in symptom group research, expanding beyond diabetes to encompass various chronic diseases; their primary responsibility involves recording patients' daily symptoms and vital signs. However, a substantial portion of current AI research excludes nurses from the developmental phase, encompassing them solely in user and feedback populations. The comprehensive design of the symptom analysis and long-term management approach necessitates the guidance and oversight of nurses; however, their current insufficient involvement might stem from nursing staff's comparatively limited comprehension of AI and their ambiguous perception of their role's value in AI. Therefore, an imperative exploration of nurses' roles in symptom analysis and long-term management, leveraging the latest research in these areas, is vital to pinpoint breakthroughs in nurses' AI involvement in the future.
