Assessment of anaesthesia-intensive care practitioners' knowledge

Assessment of anaesthesia and resuscitation professionals' (MAR, TA) knowledge of artificial intelligence and its use at medical level.To collect data, we used a pre-established questionnaire. Given the state of containment due to the COVID-19 pandemic, questionnaires were distributed online to anesthesia technicians and MARs in various departments of private and public health establishments. The target population was 70 survey participants. Data were analyzed using SPSS software. The results were recorded using Excel software. 45.2% were able to carry out statistical analyses on their own, 12% were unable to do so, and 25% were willing to pay a statistician. 68.8% had never attended a conference, symposium or event on the theme of AI in medicine or anesthesia. The level of AI knowledge was good in 9.4% of cases, nil in 25% and average in 60.9%. 54.7% were in favor of training in AI. 34.4% stated that knowledge of a programming language was a prerequisite, and was compulsory for 12.5%.
