"We also need to accommodate and reschedule for non-working days, which causes a big issue with managing the workload in many clinics around the world," added Hourvitz, who presented the research highlighting AI's growing role in reproductive medicine.The new study used a dataset of 9550 predictable antagonist cycles gathered from one lab with over 50 physicians between August 2018 and October 2022.
"We could accurately predict when those 'peak days' were going to be happening in the clinic, and we could also give a pretty good estimate on how many cycles you're going to have every day," Hourvitz said, explaining that this information could help clinics more efficiently allocate resources and manage patients.
