AI vs. pediatricians: who makes the call?
NCT ID NCT07179861
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study tested how well AI tools perform on pediatric case scenarios and whether showing AI suggestions can improve doctors' answers. About 30 pediatric specialists answered medical cases, with some receiving AI recommendations before finalizing their decisions. The goal is to understand if AI can safely support clinical decision-making in pediatrics.
