Pennsylvania Democrats made significant gains in Tuesday's election – even in places that strongly supported Donald Trump last year. Four members of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives are preparing to leave their seats after winning local races. Now that election day voting is over, the next task for election officials in Pennsylvania is to officially certify the results. PA Secretary of State Al Schmidt says that process should take about 2 weeks. Health providers and emergency rooms in Philadelphia have seen an uptick in seizures among patients who use street drugs. Fathers are often left out of maternal and child health decisions but a bill which has been passed by the state House aims to change that. And a deep dive: Health systems across Pennsylvania are rapidly adopting artificial intelligence to aid them in administrative tasks like medical documentation and in clinical settings with imaging and diagnostics. But as the technology quickly evolves, clinicians, lawmakers and patient safety experts are trying to figure out how to monitor and regulate this new area of medicine.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
