Ketamine Infusion Pain Screening
What a ketamine infusion pain screening asks, with sample questions on pain, past treatments, health history, and medicines.
A ketamine infusion pain screening records a patient's pain, past treatments, heart and general health, medicines, and ride home before an infusion for chronic pain. These questions come from a general OHSU pain form and ketamine handouts from Cheyenne Regional Medical Center and St. Joseph's Health Care London (Canada).
Ketamine infusion pain screening, handled by the AI Doctor avatar
AI Doctor, a real-time AI healthcare assistant avatar, asks the questions on a ketamine infusion pain screening in the patient's own language, strictly following the practice's instructions.
- Intake before the visit. Patients answer online before they arrive, or at a kiosk when they check in.
- Answers ready for the clinician. Clinicians see what the patient said before the visit starts.
- Less workload at the front desk. Staff spend less time handing out forms and entering answers by hand.
- Key details at a glance. The care team sees what matters up front and decides who needs attention first.
The form becomes a natural conversation: patients answer by talking, in their own words. AI Doctor is an information and patient-assistance interface. It collects answers for the care team to review. It doesn't diagnose, triage, or give treatment advice.
