Chatehr has developed AI software Stanford Medicine speeds up chart reviews by allowing clinicians to ask questions about their medical records.
Similar to how to chat with a larger language model like this GPT-4, Stanford Healthcare clinicians can connect with their patients’ medical records through Chatehr.
In a statement, Stanford Medicine said the technology, currently in the pilot stage, will allow clinicians to ask questions about the patient’s medical history, automatically summarise the charts and perform other tasks.
Chatehr uses data from patient health records to provide answers.
The software is currently available to a small number of people at Stanford Hospital and consists of 33 doctors, nurses, physician assistants and nurse practitioners.
When the clinician accesses the tool, they are greeted with “Hello, I’m Chatehr! I’m here to help you chat safely with the patient’s medical records.”
At that stage, clinicians can enter a barrage of questions about the patient.
Example: Do patients have allergies? What will their latest cholesterol test reveal? Did they have a colonoscopy?
“AI can enhance the practices of physicians and other healthcare providers, but it’s useless unless it’s built into the workflow.
“Chatehr is safe, pulls directly from relevant medical data and is integrated into an electronic medical record system, making it easy and accurate for clinical use,” said Shah, who led the team that developed the technology.
Chatehr is not intended as medical advice, Shah said in a statement. He said the software will serve as an information gathering tool and all medical decisions remain in the hands of medical professionals.

April, Samsung has announced a collaborative research initiative with Stanford Medicine aimed at enhancing the sleep apnea detection capabilities of the Galaxy Watch and creating AI-enabled innovations for aggressive care.
Receiving sleep apnea detection function FDA de novo approved Last year, Samsung’s Health Monitor app was used to detect signs of moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea in adults aged 22 and older.
Ultimately, Samsung aims to enable daily monitoring of sleep apnea and provide individuals with valuable insights and tools to effectively manage this condition.

Included in other companies in the chart review and medical records space Layer Health will collaborate with White Plains Hospital in May to automate reports across multiple clinical registries and accelerate the chart review process.
White Plains Hospital participates in numerous clinical registries that require resources to collect and submit patient data.
