It’s a bit of a misunderstanding of the role of doctors as well IMO. Apart from a small fraction of them they aren’t scientists or researchers and aren’t supposed to be. And the human body is complex, problems can arise which can’t easily be understood. The expectation that every doctor is House and we’ll each get millions of dollar of diagnostics is wrong. There’s also a reason why experiments in science require an awful lot of preparation and rigor that doesn’t exist in the happenstance of the real world. No AI is going to solve for a lack of information or confounding factors that make understanding what’s happened impossible. I had a heart attack nearly six weeks ago despite being healthy, fit and having no chronic health issues. They kept me in hospital for five days after I got a clot squished by a stent. I’ve come back negative for basically everything bar some immune disorder tests I’m waiting on the results of. The fact I’ve not heard probably means those were negative as well. So I got this fatal blood clot and the medical staff absolutely knocked it out of the park in terms of working out what the acute issue was, dealing with it without undue distress (seriously a PCI is magic) and my care and rehabilitation afterwards has been great. But I’ll likely never know why it happened. The other side of that is I end up on a standard cocktail of medication despite having a normal blood pressure, normal cholesterol and so on. Essentially the drug regime seems calibrated for the average heart attack patient which is someone older with chronic problems. I had a rash as a side effect and the doctors swapped a med and I’m fine again. How did they know what to change of the six meds? I guess experience and wider statistical analysis in the medical community. It worked!
