AI Harms Patients Via Medical Devices

Reuters reports that AI-enabled medical devices, led by the TruDi Navigation System used in sinus surgery, have triggered more than 100 FDA malfunction notifications and at least 10 patient injury reports since an AI 'upgrade' introduced in 2021. A JAMA Health Forum analysis finds 1,357 FDA-approved AI devices and a 43% early recall rate, raising concerns about rushed deployments, legal suits, and reduced FDA review capacity after staffing cuts.
