AI and emerging technologies are changing the way nurses care for patients, make clinical decisions, and connect with those they serve. Tools like artificial intelligence—think predictive analytics, virtual nursing assistants, and decision-support systems—are helping nurses work more accurately and efficiently while keeping patients safer. Alongside AI, innovations like telehealth, wearable health devices, electronic health records, robotics, and smart monitors are reshaping daily nursing routines and making healthcare more accessible. As these technologies become a bigger part of nursing practice, they bring exciting possibilities but also new ethical questions. Nurses must remain adaptable and continue learning to maximize the benefits of these advancements. This important topic will be featured at the 5th Edition of the World Nursing Research Conference.
Session Overview:
This session examines the transformative effects of AI and emerging technologies on nursing practice. Key topics include AI-driven clinical decision support, remote monitoring, robotics in caregiving, and the application of big data in research and population health. Ethical considerations, data privacy, and digital literacy in nursing education will also be addressed. Attendees will gain insights into how nurses can lead the safe and effective integration of technology to enhance clinical judgment, improve patient outcomes, and advance care delivery across various settings.
