The Efficiency of Writing Endoscopic Reports by Artificial Intelligence and Physicians: a Randomized Controlled Trial

February 18, 2020 updated by: Xiuli Zuo, Shandong University
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficiency of writing endoscopic reports by artificial intelligence and physicians through a randomized controlled trial.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Digestive endoscopy permits early detection of gastrointestinal diseases and improving the patients' quality of life. However, writing endoscopic report takes a lot of manpower and time, reducing the efficiency of endoscopy. Our center has developed a structured diagnostic report generation system for digestive endoscopy, which can generates the report by artificial intelligence. Here, we compare the efficiency of writing endoscopic reports by artificial intelligence and physicians through a randomized controlled trial.

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
  • Allocation: Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Parallel Assignment
  • Masking: Single

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Artificial Intelligence generating endoscopic report
In this group, the endoscopic report was generated by artificial intelligence (AI) based on the structured diagnostic report generation system.
After the endoscopic procedure, the physicians click the structured reporting button of computer to automatically complete the report through the structured diagnostic report generation system. The physicians only make minor corrections to the report.
Active Comparator: Physicians writing endoscopic report
In this group, the endoscopic report was writing by physicians.
After the endoscopic procedure, the physicians writing the report in computer according the procedure.
