Business Honor: Nvidia AI Transforms Hospital Workforce

Nvidia advances hospitals by implementing AI robots and voice assistants to address workforce shortages and improve patient care.

The chipmaker located in California is working with partnering companies entering AI across medicine, developing technology to provide personal assistance to surgeons by analyzing scans, and saving medical professionals hours of paperwork, according to Nvidia's Vice President of Healthcare Kimberly Powell. "We are an AI and accelerated computing platform company," Powell told FOX Business. "What we do is help others build AI solutions onto the hospitals themselves, there's a lot happening, and there are a lot of amazing opportunities. It's very clear that demand for healthcare services is far outpacing the supply of healthcare professionals," she added.

Nvidia is going further into "physical AI" that has a physical form, such as a robot that can help complete tasks in the physical world. According to Powell, Nvidia has been collaborating with GE HealthCare to develop autonomous X-ray and ultrasound capabilities that can increase access to imaging in underserved populations, as well as with Moon Surgical, which has developed a robotic assistant to change the focus of surgical cameras in real time. "They're able to basically move that camera into view of where the surgeon is with his or her tools," Powell said. "For the first time, we are actually deploying AI to move the robots." Nvidia is also collaborating with Johnson & Johnson to create virtual operating room environments that can simulate how a robot would work inside a virtual world before that robot ever is deployed in the real world.

Nvidia has also deployed delivery robots for transporting supplies to help "lighten the load for nurses.” In addition to robots, Powell stated that Nvidia's technology is enabling software to help prevent clinician burnout. Abridge built a voice application that records and transcribes doctor-patient conversations and automatically creates medical notes. "Rather than your doctor sitting there typing, literally not having eye contact with you, it's able to capture all of that automatically," Powell added.
