Artificial Intelligence in Pediatric Emergency Medicine | A Conversation with Dr. Selin Sagalowsky

Artificial intelligence is rapidly moving from theory to the bedside in pediatric emergency medicine. In this episode, Dr. Selin Sagalowsky - Vice Chair for Education in the Department of Emergency Medicine at NYU Grossman School of Medicine - joins the show to discuss how AI is already being used to support medical education and how it may soon reshape day-to-day clinical care in the pediatric emergency department.We explore how AI and educational informatics can help better understand trainee clinical exposure, personalize learning, and potentially link education to patient-centered outcomes. Dr. Sagalowsky also shares her vision of AI as a future “co-pilot” in the ED, offering real-time clinical decision support, while highlighting important risks around de-skilling, safety, validation, and the preservation of adaptive expertise and professional identity.This conversation kicks off a broader interview series with pediatric emergency physicians and educators exploring what AI means for the future of PEM - both the opportunities and the challenges as these tools become more integrated into clinical practice and training.Check out the video conversation and additional AI and Pediatric Emergency Medicine content at www.HipPEMcrates.com
