Artificial Intelligence and Creation of an Accessible Clinical Pharmacological Program for Test-takers
Main Article Content
Abstract
A significant increase in approved drugs available for treatment during the past 25 years poses a challenge for medical education and associated testing including licensure exams. It is neither a practical nor responsible goal to have students memorize large volumes of static clinical pharmacologic information e.g., pharmacokinetic data, drug interactions. Provision of an electronic storage device not connected to the internet during formal evaluations is a process that can solve this problem; it also reflects the true matrix of modern medical decision-making regarding pharmacotherapy. Artificial intelligence is not required. Information provided herein proposes how to accomplish this advancement.
Aim: -To encourage support for medical education programs and licensing boards
-To provide test-takers with an electronic storage device containing clinical
-Pharmacological information that can be utilized to arrive at drug therapeutic decisions.
Scope: Healthcare professionals involved in the education of medical students and in their subsequent licensing certifications.
