Resumo
Objetivou-se apresentar o panorama atual da inteligência artificial na saúde, explorando avanços, desafios éticos, técnicos e regulatórios e perspectivas para sua consolidação no cuidado ao paciente. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa fundamentada em Whittemore e Knafl, com busca nas bases PubMed, SciELO e Google Scholar em janeiro de 2026, incluindo dezoito estudos primários com validação clínica explícita, publicados nos últimos cinco anos nos idiomas português, inglês e espanhol. A seleção e avaliação da qualidade foram conduzidas por dois revisores utilizando a Newcastle-Ottawa Scale, o Critical Appraisal Skills Programme, a ferramenta Cochrane Risk of Bias 2 e o Prediction Model Risk of Bias Assessment Tool. Os dados foram sintetizados por análise temática e síntese narrativa. Os resultados demonstram avanços no diagnóstico por imagem, predição clínica e atenção primária, com acurácia superior ou equivalente à de especialistas humanos. Persistem desafios como viés algorítmico, falta de transparência, vazio regulatório, deterioração pós-implantação e riscos à privacidade e autonomia do paciente. A consolidação ética da inteligência artificial na saúde depende de regulação robusta, diversificação de bases de dados, formação profissional e modelos explicáveis centrados no ser humano.
