Day 2: 15th October @ 11:05

How to Safely Deploy AI and Agentic Systems to Improve Patient Safety

AI and agentic systems have the potential to improve patient safety, but deploying them into safety-critical workflows requires rigorous benchmarking, validation and oversight.

Drawing on real-world pharmacovigilance deployments, this session will explore how organisations can benchmark AI against existing human workflows, define safety and accuracy thresholds, and move from pilot to production with confidence.

Examples will include adverse event detection, safety inbox triage, case intake and reconciliation, with a focus on reducing manual workload while maintaining human oversight, auditability and regulatory compliance.
