A new survey finds high confidence in generative AI's potential among U.S. nurses but a lack of preparedness and governance impedes its impact.
Key Details
- 1Over 75% of U.S. nurses believe GenAI can boost productivity; less than half feel ready to use it effectively.
- 2Survey included 300+ U.S. healthcare professionals, covering nurses, physicians, administrators, and others.
- 362% of nurses say AI helps new staff become productive more quickly through training integration.
- 4Only 22% of nursing departments require formal GenAI training; the same proportion have official policies.
- 553% of nurses worry GenAI could undermine clinical judgment or cause overreliance on algorithms.
- 6Direct mentions: AI use in radiology (AI for CPT code assignment, expert advice from a radiologist with 10+ years' experience).
Why It Matters
The findings highlight the readiness gap and need for governance around AI use in clinical workflows, including radiology. Addressing training and policy deficits could be crucial in realizing AI's promised benefits and ensuring safe, effective adoption in imaging and other clinical areas.
