Key result
AI shows potential to enhance AAA management via improved prediction, automated detection, and decision support.
Why the study?
To discuss how artificial intelligence can assist and improve the standard of care and personalized management plans for patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms.
Artificial intelligence offers promising tools for enhancing the management of abdominal aortic aneurysms through improved screening, growth prediction, mortality risk assessment, and clinical decision support.
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a pathological dilation that is 3 cm or greater resulting in a bulging or balloon appearance. To meet a personalized therapeutic approach for patients, artificial intelligence (AI) can exhibit an array of applications ranging from decoding patterns from large data sets to predicting new data. The review aims to discuss how AI can assist and improve the standard of care and management plans for these patients. A comprehensive non-systematic literature review was carried out for published material on the use of AI relating to AAAs. The PubMed and Google Scholar databases were used to scout for articles relating to the title of this review. The review included 54 literature papers in this study. AI is involved on a genomic level, which assists in screening, diagnosing, and identifying individual risk factors of a patient. Personalized management plans can be created with AI predictions using patient data to reduce the risk of in-hospital mortality following a repair or due to complications. AI represents a promising group of programs aimed at improving patient management and assisting surgeons in making beneficial decisions to improve the patient's prognosis.
