Application of Artificial Intelligence in Paramedic Education: Current Scenario and Future Perspective: A Narrative Review

Abstract

Background:

Artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionise paramedic education. As well as allowing for personalised learning experiences tailored to individual needs and learning styles, it can provide simulations, intelligent tutoring systems, automated grading and assessment, and predictive analytics.

Objective:

To investigate the role of artificial intelligence in transforming the landscape of paramedic education and evaluate its potential to improve learning outcomes.

Methods:

This review presented the role of AI in paramedic education and its perspective over the past twenty years. It included high-quality data and comprehensive investigations of articles available in renowned databases.

Results:

AI-based training and simulation technologies, such as virtual patients, surgical simulators, and intelligent tutoring systems,are increasingly being used in paramedic education. Virtual patients use computer-generated avatars to display symptoms and react to therapies, while surgical simulators use accurate anatomical models and haptic feedback devices to simulate surgical operations.

Conclusion:

AI has the potential to fundamentally alter how students learn, the kind of education they receive, and the efficiency with which healthcare is delivered. It can create immersive training environments, analyse medical data, and help students feel more competent, confident, and capable. This potential can be harnessed to enhance paramedic education and improve patient care outcomes.
