    Can AI Help Physicians Detect Sepsis?

    CME available on the AMA Ed Hub™: https://edhub.ama-assn.org/ama-education/audio-player/10.1001/ama.2025.0002174 Sepsis: at its inception, it is difficult to recognize but easy to treat; left unattended, it becomes easy to recognize and difficult to treat. As the adage states, sepsis is notoriously difficult to recognize in its early stages, due to the lack of a definitive diagnostic tool. When left undetected, the outcomes can be devastating. But what if artificial intelligence (AI) could be utilized to detect sepsis in its early stage? In this episode of Clinically Significant™, hosts Jodi Abbott, MD, MSc, MHCM, Maylyn Martinez, MD, MSc, and Avir Mitra, MD, explore the use of AI-tools for early detection of sepsis, including advancements as well as challenges to implementation and generalization.
