Abstract
Objective This scoping review maps the approach undertaken by nurses to influence the implementation of artificial intelligence in health care. It also provides evidence of how frequently nurses drive the implementation of artificial intelligence, and how often nurses collaborate within the technical team.
Methods A systematic search using the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines was undertaken from 24 July to 22 August 2020 to identify six records that met the inclusion criteria.
Results Nurses influenced the implementation of artificial intelligence in health care by: problem solving; articulating contextual needs and priorities; providing real-world insight and solutions; providing examples of implementation; and determining end user satisfaction. There was one instance of nurses driving implementation, and four instances of nurses collaborating with a technical team approach.
Conclusion The expertise of nurses must be sought to ensure artificial intelligence can effectively meet the highly context-specific demands of the healthcare environment.
Keywords: algorithms, artificial intelligence, implementation, influence, involvement, nurse, robotics, technology.
