Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a potentially transformative force, particularly in the realm of emergency medicine (EM). The implementation of AI in emergency departments (ED) has the potential to improve patient care through various modalities. However, the implementation of AI in the ED presents unique challenges that influence its clinical adoption. This scoping review summarizes the current literature exploring the barriers and facilitators of the clinical implementation of AI in the ED. ⋯ There is increasing literature on AI implementation in the ED. Our research suggests that the most common barrier facing AI implementation in the ED is model interpretability and explainability. More primary research investigating the implementation of specific AI tools should be undertaken to help facilitate their successful clinical adoption in the ED.
