Abstract:

With the continuous advancement of interdisciplinary research in medical engineering,large language models have demonstrated innovative potential in the medical field. In emergency and critical care clinical nursing,the integration of large language models has shown remarkable efficacy in disease diagnosis assistance,clinical nursing decision support,medical documentation automation,and patient health guidance and consultation. This paper systematically reviews the technological evolution of large language models,focusing on their current applications in emergency and critical care medicine. It also conducts an in-depth analysis of challenges in incorporating large language models into healthcare systems,including data privacy and security,legal and ethical considerations and model reliability,aiming to provide a reference for the standardized implementation of artificial intelligence technology in emergency and critical care nursing.
