Why the study?
Hypertension poses a significant healthcare burden globally, motivating an exploration of the transformative role of artificial intelligence across key areas of hypertension care.
Does artificial intelligence improve the comprehensive care and management of hypertension?
Does artificial intelligence improve the comprehensive care and management of hypertension?
AI has transformative potential across the continuum of hypertension care, from risk prediction to patient education, provided technical and ethical limitations are addressed.
This review explores the transformative role of artificial intelligence (AI) in hypertension care, summarizing and analyzing published works from the last three years in this field. Hypertension contributes to a significant healthcare burden both at an individual and global level. We focus on five key areas: risk prediction, diagnosis, education, monitoring, and management of hypertension, supplemented with a brief look into the works on hypertensive disease of pregnancy. For each area, we discuss the advantages and disadvantages of integrating AI. While AI, in its current rudimentary form, cannot replace sound clinical judgment, it can still enhance faster diagnosis, education, prevention, and management. The integration of AI in healthcare is poised to revolutionize hypertension care, although careful implementation and ongoing research are essential to mitigate risks.
