The Use of Artificial Intelligence in Health and Ethical Problems

Abstract

Artificial intelligence applications developed within the scope of digitalisation in health are used in diagnosing diseases, evaluating patients, determining treatment methods, and nursing care. Artificial intelligence plays an active role in many areas of health, especially in supporting elderly individuals and alleviates the burden on the health system by managing chronic diseases. Regular follow-up of patients, self-management programs, adoption of healthy lifestyle behaviours, mobile applications, and smart homes are used in chronic disease management. The widespread use of artificial intelligence applications in many areas has caused ethical dilemmas and some concerns. This review was made to provide an overview of artificial intelligence and provide information about using artificial intelligence in health and ethical problems.
