Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Despite advancements in anesthesia techniques and equipment, anesthesia-related complications continue to occur, often due to human errors and the limitations of current tools. The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into anesthesia presents a transformative opportunity to enhance patient safety and improve outcomes throughout the perioperative journey. By leveraging machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL), AI can analyze vast datasets to detect subtle patterns, predict risks such as difficult intubation or hemodynamic instability, and enable more proactive management. Furthermore, AI-driven systems have the potential to optimize anesthetic control, reducing variability and enhancing precision. In the postoperative phase, AI can improve personalized pain management and monitoring, further enhancing recovery and patient satisfaction. However, challenges such as data privacy concerns, lack of opacity, and the potential erosion of human interaction in care must be carefully addressed. Ultimately, the future of anesthesiology lies in a synergistic relationship between AI and human expertise – where AI amplifies precision and foresight, while anesthesiologists maintain the empathy and clinical judgment needed to navigate complex patient care.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
