Evaluating in Person Curriculum for Educating Obstetrical Residents on Better Caring for 2 Spirit Metis Patients Using and AI Assisted OSCE.
Mawiiyahk Nakatikasho: No One Left Behind: Assessing and Improving Competence in Caring for Two-Spirit Metis Patients Through an AI-Assisted Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE): A Multisite Randomized Controlled Feasibility Trial for Ob/Gyn Residents
Two-Spirit (2S) Métis individuals often encounter significant barriers and discrimination in healthcare settings. This multisite randomized controlled feasibility trial evaluates a novel artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) designed to assess and improve Obstetrics and Gynecology (Ob/Gyn) residents' competencies in delivering culturally safe, trauma-informed, and identity-affirming care to 2S Métis patients.
Up to 90 Ob/Gyn residents across three Canadian academic sites (University of Alberta, University of Manitoba, and University of Saskatchewan) will be randomized 1:1 to complete either a 2S Métis Academic Half Day paired with AI-assisted OSCE evaluation or standard institutional anti-racism training with AI-assisted OSCE evaluation. The primary focus is to evaluate study feasibility (recruitment, retention, and delivery fidelity) and resident performance on clinical communication, trauma-informed care, and cultural humility evaluated using a 2S Métis co-developed scoring rubric.

Status
Detaljerad beskrivning
Two-Spirit (2S) Métis people experience systemic discrimination, exclusion, and culturally unsafe care, particularly in reproductive, perinatal, and gender-affirming healthcare contexts. In response to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's Call to Action #24, this study introduces an innovative educational model integrating artificial intelligence, Indigenous governance, and culturally specific evaluation frameworks to strengthen resident physician competency.
The AI system serves two primary functions:
- Co-developing culturally grounded assessment rubrics in collaboration with 2S Métis Elders, Knowledge Keepers, and community members.
- Standardizing patient portrayal during OSCE clinical encounters to ensure consistency, eliminate human actor variability, and avoid the emotional burden associated with repeated standardized patient portrayals.
Study Design & Methods: Ob/Gyn residents (PGY1-PGY5) across three participating universities will undergo 1:1 prospective randomization:
- Intervention Arm: 2S Métis Academic Half Day (AHD) + AI-assisted OSCE evaluation.
- Control Arm: Standard institutional anti-racism and Indigenous cultural safety training + AI-assisted OSCE evaluation.
AI Encounter Flow: Participants undergo a 5-minute pre-encounter briefing, a 15-20 minute real-time interaction with the AI-simulated 2S Métis patient, and a 5-minute post-encounter reflection. Recorded encounters will be independently scored by two blinded raters (including at least one 2S Métis community member) using the co-developed structured rubric.
Ethics and Data Sovereignty: All algorithms, datasets, and cultural representations are governed by principles of Indigenous Data Sovereignty (OCAP®) and UNDRIP, ensuring community oversight and authority over cultural content, rubric criteria, and data ownership
