Title: Deep Medicine Pdf How Artificial Intelligence Can Make Healthcare Human Again

One of America's top doctors reveals how AI will empower physicians and revolutionize patient care

Medicine has become inhuman, to disastrous effect. The doctor-patient relationship - the heart of medicine - is broken: doctors are too distracted and overwhelmed to truly connect with their patients, and medical errors and misdiagnoses abound. In Deep Medicine, leading physician Eric Topol reveals how artificial intelligence can help. AI has the potential to transform everything doctors do, from notetaking and medical scans to diagnosis and treatment, greatly cutting down the cost of medicine and reducing human mortality. By freeing physicians from the tasks that interfere with human connection, AI will create space for the real healing that takes place between a doctor who can listen and a patient who needs to be heard. 

Innovative, provocative, and hopeful, Deep Medicine shows us how the awesome power of AI can make medicine better, for all the humans involved.

Crystal Ball for the Next Era of Healthcare Dr. Topol’s new book, Deep Medicine – How Artificial Intelligence Can Make Healthcare Human Again, is an encyclopedia of the emerging Fourth Industrial Age; a crystal ball in what is about happen in the next era of healthcare. I’m impressed by the detailed references and touching personal and family stories. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) policy modifications in the past 10 months reveal sweeping changes that fortify Dr. Topol’s vision: May 2018 medical students can document for attending physicians in the health record (MLN MM10412), 2019 ancillary staff members and patients can document the History/medical interview into the health record, 2021 medical providers can document based only on Medical Decision Making or Time (Federal Register Nov, 23, 2018). Part of making healthcare human is also making it fun. The joy of practicing medicine is about to return to the healthcare delivery as computers will be used to empower humanistic traits, not overburden medical professionals with clerical tasks. For patients, you will be heard, understood and personally treated. Deep Medicine is not a vision of what will happen in 50 years as much will start to reveal within the next 5!Bravo Dr. Topol!Michael Warner, DO, CPC, CPCO, CPMA, AAPC FellowA fascinating glimpse into the future of medicine, but sometimes is a bit too far-reaching ... The first time I encountered anything by Eric Topol was when I read his last book The Patient will See You Now. I’ve always had an interest in the history of medicine, particularly that of the nineteenth century. It was during that particular time that, despite the quackery of some men and women of medicine, great advances were made. We’re yet again at a juncture in time where we are once again moving forward at a rapid rate. This is a time where the past and the future are melding, where we are finding best practices in a highly technological age. I should say attempting to find the best practices as some people are finding it difficult to move into this new world, miring themselves in the past. Topol is what I’d dub a futuristic author, one who envisions a future in medicine, a visionary not unlike some of his nineteenth century predecessors.If you heard Dr. Topol on NPR, you probably got a glimpse as to what he is attempting to do in this book. He wants to introduce us to the future of medicine, the way AI (artificial intelligence) and technology can help us move into that future. If you listened long enough, you may have heard a frustrated physician express his views. Topol also, once again, recounts the tale of the medical mystery of “Robert,” and how his misdiagnosis “represents everything wrong with medicine today.” Medicine, as it has been practiced and is being practiced, failed not only Robert, but Topol himself. Add the rest of us as far as he’s concerned. He feels this book, as far as futuristic medicine goes, is the “most far-reaching one.”Topol begins by explaining the three-fold components of the deep medicine model. He quickly shifts into what he calls “shallow medicine,” the medicine he assumes most physicians now practice. According to Topol, in part, this results in “extraordinary waste, suboptimal outcomes, and unnecessary harm.” I feel he is not giving his peers credit for what I see as an incredible shift toward the use of AI and high-tech practices in medicine. For example, the physicians and specialists I see are in the trenches, already utilizing deep medicine. Had they not been, I would have long been in the bone yard pushing up daisies. However, I do love Topol’s remarkable compilation of studies, discussions on the positive impact AI tools can have in today’s medicine, the importance of patient advocacy, etc.For those who love to read about science and medicine (I do), this is a fabulous resource. My only quibble with Dr. Topol are a few sweeping opinion-based views. For example, when he talks about shallow medical practice that leads to “plenty of misdiagnoses and unnecessary procedures,” he takes a stab at the new blood pressure guidelines outlined by the American Heart Association and American College of Cardiology in 2017. Topol goes on to say that this is “leading to the diagnosis of more than 30 million more Americans with hypertension despite the lact of any solid evidence to back up this guideline.” This, according to Topol, “was misdiagnosis at an epidemic scale.”This statement is rather irresponsible at best considering the guidelines were changed in 2017 for good reason. The study, which Topol doesn’t mention, was the Systolic Blood Pressure Intervention Trial (SPRINT). Check it out if you will. This book is quite readable, fun actually, but make sure you consult with your doctor before tossing out your meds. I for one am seeing physicians practicing deep medicine and am not finding those doctors Topol claims can be overconfident, condescending, arrogant, or simply not caring. I would suggest a bit of due diligence and a bit of extra research as well as a trip to your physician before making any lifestyle changes one may read about in this book. The book has an excellent index, source notes, and numerous charts and graphs for reference.
