Summary

This trial tests whether a digital-supported consent process — including a procedure-specific educational video and an offline AI question-answering tool — helps patients better understand the risks, benefits, and alternatives of advanced therapeutic endoscopy. Adult patients scheduled for elective advanced endoscopy are randomly assigned to either standard physician-led consent or the digital pathway. The main goal is to measure patient comprehension before the procedure, along with anxiety, satisfaction, and decision-making confidence.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
a digital-supported consent pathway including an educational video and an AI-based question-answering tool
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a more effective and consistent way to help patients understand complex medical procedures before giving consent.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small trial focused on comprehension, not on clinical outcomes. The digital tool may not improve understanding for all patients, and the AI component may struggle with nuanced questions.
