Predetermined Change Control for Adaptive Medical AI Systems
Adaptive medical AI should be governed as planned device change, not informal model maintenance.
Obuseff Journal
Research notes, essays, and technical observations on medical AI, clinical data architecture, and the infrastructure required to move biomedical work from prototype to dependable system.
Adaptive medical AI should be governed as planned device change, not informal model maintenance.
Clinical data platforms should preserve provenance, consent, and transformation history as inspectable system evidence.
A deployable AI system should connect hazards, controls, validation evidence, and post-deployment monitoring in one traceable file.
Clinical oversight must be designed as authority, workflow, escalation, and evidence, not as a decorative approval button.
Genomic AI depends on defensible lineage from consent and accession through preprocessing, feature construction, and model use.
Protected health information requires administrative, physical, and technical safeguards translated into practical compute controls.
Verification should prove that the software implements specified behavior before validation argues clinical usefulness.
Clinical model monitoring should detect drift, missingness, misuse, and silent workflow change before they become patient risk.
Federated learning reduces raw data movement, but it does not remove consent, security, bias, or accountability requirements.
Interoperability is not message exchange alone; it is preservation of clinical meaning across systems with different duties.
Genetic interpretation systems should expose evidence version, rule basis, assertion confidence, and review history.
Cell and gene therapy programs need data pipelines that preserve assay context, batch identity, and CMC evidence.
Biomedical foundation models require model registries, evaluation gates, dataset restrictions, and deployment constraints.
Biomedical platforms should enforce consent at the data-plane level, not only through policy documents.
A discovery graph should preserve claim provenance, evidence grade, biological context, and contradictory findings.
A medical digital twin must define what it predicts, what it cannot infer, and which clinical decisions remain out of scope.
Synthetic data can improve test coverage, but it cannot replace clinical validation or obscure provenance duties.
Controlled-access genomic research requires environment-level controls for identity, export, logging, and incident response.
AI incidents should be handled as clinical, software, data, and governance events at the same time.
The transition from research code to medical software is a change in evidence, accountability, and lifecycle control.
