[SUMMARY] Background : Information technology in the medical field has made swift and dramatic progress in recent years. On the other hand, data overload, particularly in the intensive care setting, may pose a problem. Artificially intelligent（AI） robots may supply the solution to the increasing technical complexity of medical care. However, little research has yet been done to study the affinity of health care providers for bedside AI robots in the pediatric intensive care unit（PICU）. Methods : A bedside AI robot, SotaTM（Viston Co., Ltd.）, was installed in the PICU at Tokyo Metropolitan Children's Medical Center for the AI programming. After the health care providers in the PICU observed the operations of the robot, they were asked to respond to a questionnaire assessing their reactions to the robot. Results : Twenty-five health care providers were enrolled. Forty-three % of the respondents stated that the robot's recognition of abnormal data（ notified by an alarm） was very useful, 76% thought that AI and robots had an important role to play in improving treatment safety, and over 70% thought that the further development of this system was desirable. Conclusion : In this study, we assessed the affinity of health care providers for a bedside AI robot in a PICU. Current robotic technology is far from mature, but AI and bedside robots in PICU merit serious consideration as future adjuncts to medical care. Properly integrated AI will doubtless improve patient outcomes and health care efficiency.
