Expectations vs Reality of an Intraoperative Artificial Intelligence Intervention
Per the results of this multisite qualitative study, successfully implementing interventions based on artificial intelligence may require deliberate efforts to minimize gaps between what surgeons expect from the interventions and what they can deliver. Our evaluation of this study's AI intervention offers lessons for addressing this critical barrier to implementation.
