摘要
Key Points Question Can a large language model (LLM)-based chatbot outperform surgeons in generating readable, accurate, and complete procedure-specific risks, benefits, and alternatives (RBAs) for use in informed consent? Findings This cross-sectional study of 36 RBAs for 6 commonly performed surgical procedures found that the LLM-based chatbot generated more readable, complete, and accurate consent documentation than the surgeons. Meaning These findings indicate that LLM-based chatbots are a promising tool for generating informed consent forms, easing the documentation burden on physicians while providing salient information to patients.
