A Large Language Model in Outpatient Care
A Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of a Large Language Model in Outpatient Care
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how the use of a large language model (LLM) based tool affects outpatient clinical care in adult patients attending general hospital outpatient clinics. The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does the use of an LLM-based tool affect the efficiency of outpatient visits? Does the use of an LLM-based tool affect the experience of doctors and patients during outpatient care?
Researchers will compare outpatient visits supported by an LLM-based tool to standard outpatient visits without such a tool, to see whether and how the tool influences the care process and the experiences of doctors and patients.
Participants will:
Take part in outpatient visits that may or may not involve an LLM-based tool, depending on their assigned group Complete a short questionnaire about their visit experience after the consultation

参加者グループ / アーム |
介入・治療 |
|---|---|
|
介入なし:Standard Outpatient Care (No AI)
Neither doctors nor patients use a large language model based tool.
Outpatient consultations and documentation are conducted following routine clinical practice.
|
|
|
実験的:Outpatient Care With a Large Language Model Tool
Before the consultation, patients complete an AI-based pre-consultation interaction.
During the visit, a large language model based tool is available to support the outpatient consultation process.
Doctors may refer to the tool during the visit.
|
A large language model based tool is introduced into the outpatient consultation workflow to support the consultation and documentation process.
|
|
実験的:Outpatient Care With a Large Language Model Tool and Workflow Support
Before the consultation, patients complete an AI-based pre-consultation interaction.
During the visit, a large language model based tool is used together with additional workflow support to integrate the tool's output into the outpatient consultation process.
|
Additional workflow support is provided to integrate the output of the large language model based tool into the consultation process, approximating a more integrated deployment of the tool.
