摘要

Objective

To carry out systematic analysis of existing literature on role of Artificial Intelligence in geriatric patient healthcare.

Methods

A detailed online search was carried out using search phrases in reliable sources of information like Pubmed database, Embase database, Ovid database, Global Health database, PsycINFO, and Web of Science. Study specific information was gathered, including the organisation, year of publication, nation, setting, design of the research, information about population, size of study sample, group dynamics, eligibility and exclusion requirements, information about intervention, duration of exposure to the intervention , comparators, details of outcome measures, scheduling of evaluations, and consequences. After information gathering, the reviewers gathered to discuss any differences.

Results

Thirty-one studies were finally selected for systemic review. Although there was some disagreement on the acceptance of AI-enhanced treatments in LTC settings, this review indicated that there was little consensus about the efficacy of those initiatives for older individuals. Social robots have been shown to increase social interaction and mood, but the data was more conflicting and less definitive for the other innovations and consequences. The majority of research evaluated a variety of results, which made it impossible to synthesise them in a meaningful way and prevented a meta-analysis. In addition, many studies have moderate to severe bias risks due to underpowered design

Conclusion

It is challenging to determine whether AI supplemented technologies for geriatric patients are significantly beneficial. Although some encouraging findings were made, more study is required.
