Abstract
The operating room nowadays is a data-rich environment to which Artificial Intelligence (AI) can respond. Current AI applications mainly focus on supporting perioperative decision-making and on improving surgical skills and safety. Specific steps need to be taken to advance the implementation of AI. Further studies are needed that focus on external validation and standardization of data and monitoring of the implementation process, as well as consensus on ethical and legal issues. In conclusion, much is expected from AI in making surgical care more efficient and safer.
