There is already a debate going on about the increasing impact of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on jobs and professions. Now this discussion has reached the medical world. A viral video has sparked a new debate among doctors about whether AI could influence treatment decisions in the future.
Dr. Manish Taneja shared this video on social media. In this, he narrates a real road accident case to the voice-based agent of Google’s AI tool Gemini and asks for clinical guidance.
In the video, the doctor tells that a 42-year-old man has been on ventilator for several days with a head injury after a serious road accident. The patient has fever, the need for oxygen has increased and new shadows are visible in the chest X-ray.
The AI agent calmly replied that these symptoms could point towards ‘Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia’. This is a lung infection, which can occur in patients who are on ventilator for a long time. AI explained its point by linking fever, changes in X-ray, increasing infection markers and the need for oxygen.
AI told the names and doses of medicines
The matter did not stop here. The doctor shared the lab report, in which there was information about drug-resistant bacteria being found. He asked which medicines should be given as per international guidelines. The AI even told the names, options and dosages of the suggested medicines within a few seconds.
