I work in an ED and I see doctors and nurses looking things up on Google and yt daily. Medications and doses are the most common thing I see. It’s not much different than how developers or mechanics diagnose a problem.

One instance I observed all the ED providers huddled around a screen watching a yt video for a pediatric patient, we are not a children’s hospital. They all watched then discussed the video before going back out to the pt.

I’m sure there should be better documentation available but so much of their jobs is judgement based already.

Medical specific trained LLMs are likely to be commonplace in near future for providers based on feedback I’ve gathered.
