Study: AI may help identify cancer survivors at risk for emergency visits, worsening symptoms

Artificial intelligence models using electronic health records and patient-reported outcomes may help identify cancer survivors at increased risk for emergency department visits, hospitalizations and worsening symptoms after treatment, according to a new study from Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, part of the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. The findings suggest AI-driven risk forecasting could help care teams intervene earlier with more proactive survivorship support.
