一般的な獣医内科疾患に対する正確なクライアント配布資料生成におけるChatGPTの有用性

Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer's (ChatGPT) ability to generate client educational materials for use in practice is unknown.

To assess the educational quality of ChatGPT-generated client handouts for common internal medicine diseases. We hypothesized that ChatGPT can be used to efficiently generate easy-to-understand, accurate handouts for client education.

Small Animal Internal Medicine (SAIM) diplomates and pet owners were administered 2 separate electronic surveys.

Client handouts on diabetes mellitus (DM) and immune-mediated hemolytic anemia (IMHA) in dogs and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in cats were generated by using a standardized prompt in ChatGPT-3.5. Electronic surveys were distributed to both pet owners and American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (ACVIM)-SAIM diplomates.

Pet owners (n = 50) reported a greater understanding of each disease process after reading the handouts for DM (Z = 5.865, P < .001), IMHA (Z = 5.953, P < .001), and IBD (Z = 5.508, P < .001). Median pet owner satisfaction scores (reported on a scale of 0 to 5, with 0 indicating poor satisfaction and 5 indicating maximal satisfaction) were 4 for DM, 4 for IMHA, and 5 for IBD. Many diplomates reported that they would use the handout on DM (n = 48/67; 71%), IBD (n = 47/62; 76%), and IMHA (n = 32/64; 50%) with either "minor" or "minimal to no" revisions.

Although some refinement is warranted, ChatGPT-3.5 was able to successfully generate client educational handouts for common internal medicine diseases.
