The evolution of care: 3 key takeaways from a new survey of cardiologists, health leaders and CVD patients

The report, developed by Abbott, examined everything from AI to social determinants of health. One key finding was that patients grade their overall satisfaction with a physician or hospital based on much more than the effectiveness of their treatment. 

A team of cardiologists from Cleveland Clinic and Stanford University recently tested ChatGPT, the popular artificial intelligence (AI) model, to see if it could accurately answer questions about preventive cardiology and cardiovascular disease. The model performed well, only missing a handful of questions, and the researchers concluded that ChatGPT showed considerable potential. Cleveland Clinic cardiologist Ashish Sarraju, MD, was the lead author of that study. #ChartGPT
