Background:
Artificial intelligence (AI)-driven simulations can address limitations of traditional standardized patient programs in health care education.
Methods:
We integrated ChatClinic, a large language model-based virtual patient platform, into a renal workshop for second-year pharmacy students. Students engaged in simulated clinical cases and completed surveys, and their interactions were analyzed for diagnostic accuracy and use patterns.
Results:
Students completed 4 virtual patient encounters related to renal pathology. Of 39 students, 19 completed surveys, and all strongly agreed the tool enhanced their understanding and application of workshop content. In 82 analyzed interactions, 75.61% resulted in correct diagnoses. Common student actions included ordering laboratory tests and taking medical histories.
Discussion:
Students found ChatClinic valuable and easy to use. Initial findings support AI simulations as effective, scalable additions to health education.

Renal Drug Clearance: Overview
Renal clearance can be calculated using different methods. One approach is to divide the urinary drug excretion rate by the plasma drug concentration. This method directly measures renal clearance, indicating the kidneys' efficiency in...
Factors Affecting Renal Clearance: Renal Impairment
One condition associated with renal failure is uremia. Uremia is characterized by impaired glomerular filtration and fluid accumulation in the body. This condition hinders the renal clearance of drugs, resulting in drug accumulation and potential...
