NCT ID NCT07756632
First seen Aug 10, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether an AI-powered physician assistant can improve satisfaction for both patients and doctors in a busy hospital outpatient clinic. The AI asks patients about their medical history and then creates a summary and recommendations for the physician to review. The study will compare experiences of patients and doctors who use this AI tool with those who do not, focusing on how waiting time is used and how patient-centered the care feels.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- AI-powered physician assistant that takes patient history and generates clinical summaries and recommendations for physicians
- What this could lead to
- If effective, this AI tool could make waiting times more productive and improve the quality of care in busy clinics, especially in lower-resource settings.
- What could go wrong
- The trial is relatively small and conducted in one hospital, so results may not apply elsewhere. The AI may not always capture accurate histories or fit smoothly into doctors' workflows.
