How I Do It: Using ChatGPT to Create Clinical Scenarios for Surgical Learning and Oral Boards Preparation

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: • ChatGPT, a large language model chatbot, can create clinical scenarios that augment an individual's direct clinical experience. • The clinical scenarios created by ChatGPT can be used for instructional and evaluative purposes. • The clinical scenarios created by ChatGPT can be used to conduct interactive oral board examinations in which the user is given critical feedback. To evaluate the use of the large language model ChatGPT to simulate an oral surgical boards examination environment. ChatGPT was asked to create oral surgical boards questions based on a series of clinical scenarios. ChatGPT created clinically relevant oral board-type questions. ChatGPT provided pertinent follow-up questions after the user's response as would occur in an oral examination as well as feedback regarding the user's response. Chat GPT can simulate an oral boards-style examination of a surgical trainee with a reasonable degree of clinical detail and immediate feedback. It may be a useful as a curricular tool and for self-education and board preparation.
