NCT ID NCT07302906

First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) scribe can reduce the time and effort doctors spend on medical notes during patient visits. The AI listens to the conversation and drafts a note, which the doctor then reviews. Researchers will compare this to the usual way of writing notes, looking at doctor burnout, workload, and patient satisfaction. About 300 patients and their doctors will take part in outpatient clinics in Brazil.
