N2 - This narrative literature review has analyzed the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and augmented reality (AR) in the field of maritime medicine. A comprehensive search was conducted in academic databases using relevant search terms, resulting in the identification of 257 records. After screening for relevance and quality, a final review was conducted on 17 papers. This review highlights the potential applications and benefits of AI and AR in enhancing medical practices and safety measures for seafarers. The integration of AI and AR technologies in maritime medicine shows promise in providing real-time medical assistance, remote consultations, augmented training, and improved diagnostic capabilities. Additionally, AI-driven predictive models can aid in early detection of health issues and support proactive health management onboard ships. Challenges related to data privacy, connectivity at sea, and the need for regulatory frameworks are also discussed. The data analysis reported in this review contributes to a better understanding of the current state and future potential of AI and AR in maritime medicine and provide insights into opportunities for further research and implementation in the maritime industry.
