AI chatbot teaches nurses to counsel breastfeeding moms better than traditional methods
NCT ID NCT07670247
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether an AI-powered role-play chatbot could help nursing students improve their breastfeeding counseling skills. 80 students were split into three groups: one practiced with an AI chatbot acting as a mother, one did peer role-play, and one received standard lectures. Results showed the AI group scored higher on data collection and feedback, while the peer group excelled in empathy. The findings suggest AI could be a useful training tool, but more research is needed.

AI-powered role-playing chatbot
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could help train nurses more effectively in breastfeeding counseling, potentially improving support for new mothers.
What could go wrong
This is a small, single-site study with 80 students, so results may not apply broadly. The AI chatbot is a prototype and may not reflect real-world counseling complexity.
