Physician vs Artificial Intelligence Counseling Before Elective Cesarean Delivery: A Randomized Controlled Trial (CAI-CS)

8. august 2026 opdateret af: noa ben shoshan, Wolfson Medical Center

A Randomized Controlled Trial Comparing Physician-Provided Versus Artificial Intelligence-Based Preoperative Counseling Before Elective Cesarean Delivery

This randomized controlled trial will compare two methods of providing preoperative counseling before elective cesarean delivery: counseling by an obstetrician-gynecologist and counseling delivered through an artificial intelligence (AI)-based system. The study aims to evaluate the effects of these counseling methods on patients' anxiety levels, understanding of medical information, and satisfaction with the counseling process.

Women scheduled for elective cesarean delivery will be randomly assigned to receive either standard physician counseling or AI-based counseling containing the same medical information. Anxiety, knowledge, and satisfaction will be assessed using questionnaires before and after counseling.

Detaljeret beskrivelse

Cesarean delivery is one of the most common surgical procedures in obstetrics, with rates increasing worldwide. Informed consent before elective cesarean delivery requires clear and comprehensive communication regarding the procedure, potential risks and benefits, alternatives, and postoperative recovery. Effective counseling is an important component of patient-centered care and may influence patient understanding, satisfaction, and anxiety.

Digital technologies are increasingly being used to improve the accessibility, consistency, and quality of patient education. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based systems have the potential to provide standardized medical information in a clear and accessible format. However, there is currently limited evidence regarding the impact of AI-based counseling compared with traditional physician-delivered counseling in the setting of elective cesarean delivery.

The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to compare two methods of preoperative counseling before elective cesarean delivery: standard counseling provided by an obstetrician-gynecologist and counseling delivered through an AI-based system. The study will evaluate the effect of these counseling methods on patient anxiety, understanding of medical information, and satisfaction with the counseling process.

Eligible participants will be women scheduled for elective cesarean delivery who attend a dedicated preoperative clinic. After providing informed consent for study participation, participants will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to receive either physician-delivered counseling or AI-based counseling. The medical content provided in both study arms will be as similar as possible, with the method of information delivery serving as the primary variable under investigation.

Anxiety levels will be assessed before and after counseling using the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory-State (STAI-State). Following counseling, participants will complete questionnaires assessing knowledge and satisfaction. All participants will have the opportunity to ask additional questions after receiving the assigned counseling intervention to ensure adequate understanding of the planned procedure.

This study seeks to generate evidence regarding the potential role of AI-based counseling as an alternative or complementary approach to traditional preoperative counseling for elective cesarean delivery.

Våben og indgreb

Deltagergruppe / Arm
Intervention / Behandling
Eksperimentel: Standard Physician Counseling
Participants assigned to this arm will receive a complete preoperative counseling session regarding elective cesarean delivery from an experienced obstetrician-gynecologist, according to departmental standard practice. The counseling will include information regarding the procedure, anesthesia, potential risks and benefits, recovery, and alternatives.
Andet: Physician-Delivered Counseling
A complete preoperative counseling session regarding elective cesarean delivery provided by an experienced obstetrician-gynecologist according to departmental standard practice. Counseling includes information regarding the procedure, anesthesia, risks, benefits, alternatives, and recovery.
Eksperimentel: AI-Based Counseling
Participants assigned to this arm will receive standardized preoperative counseling regarding elective cesarean delivery through an artificial intelligence (AI)-based system. The counseling will provide information regarding the procedure, anesthesia, potential risks and benefits, recovery, and alternatives. The medical content will be as similar as possible to that provided in the physician counseling arm.
Andet: AI-Based Counseling
A standardized preoperative counseling session regarding elective cesarean delivery delivered through an artificial intelligence (AI)-based system. The counseling provides information regarding the procedure, anesthesia, risks, benefits, alternatives, and recovery. The medical content is intended to be as similar as possible to that provided in the physician counseling arm.
