Jerusalem hosted a groundbreaking emergency medicine resuscitation competition, the first of its kind globally to be judged by an artificial intelligence system. The event aimed to bridge the gap between hospital emergency departments and frontline emergency medical teams. Eleven Magen David Adom (MDA) teams from across Israel participated, practicing medical simulations at various stations. These simulations were led by teams from Hadassah Ein Kerem's emergency department, with participation from Shaare Zedek Medical Center's emergency department. Participants tackled diverse pediatric and adult emergency medicine scenarios, requiring them to make critical treatment decisions and provide life-saving initial care, applying their daily work knowledge and skills. The competition also served as a platform for shared learning and exchange of knowledge and experience between hospital and field teams. The teams were dispatched from MDA headquarters and navigated through Jerusalem's streets, including the Old City's alleys, for the practical segment. The day concluded with a session at Hadassah Ein Kerem. Dr. Nitai Reich, an expert in emergency medicine and clinical operations manager at Hadassah Ein Kerem's emergency department, initiated and led the unique event. He explained that the competition is part of a week-long JEMAC conference on emergency and intensive care medicine, headed by Dr. Ahmed Naama, which includes international workshops on airway management, ultrasound, and other emergency medicine topics. The main conference event will be held at Binyanei Ha'uma with global experts. "The resuscitation competition has been held in the past with human expert judges," Dr. Reich stated. "This year, for the first time in the world, innovative AI technology replaced human judgment to evaluate medical performance in a simulation." He emphasized that the primary benefit of the competition is the opportunity to practice field emergency care and share knowledge gained at Hadassah, thanking MDA for their partnership.
