Abstract
Introduction: In Mexico, challenges and opportunities were identified for nursing professionals, where the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) stands out as an essential tool to improve patient care. AI, through algorithms and learning models, allows professionals to access critical information and evidence for clinical decision-making. Methods: A systematic review of observational studies was carried out, it was used as a warning or instruction in Generative AI. The above was complemented with MesH words and health descriptors, Boolean operators were used. The search was made of original research, summaries, articles, and gray literature. The selection and extraction was done in Embase, Medline, PubMed, Cochrane Library databases to later read them and perform meta-analysis. Results: The implementation of AI facilitated the personalization of patient care, improving efficiency in diagnoses and care plans. They found that AI-powered systems allowed nurses to manage workloads more effectively and respond to complex situations more quickly. However, concerns were also raised about privacy and ethics in data handling.Conclusions: AI has the potential to significantly transform nursing practice by optimizing processes and improving clinical outcomes. Despite its advantages, it is essential to address the ethical and legal challenges associated with its use. Collaboration between nursing and engineering is essential to ensure effective and responsible integration of AI into healthcare.
