AI rewrites hospital handouts: will parents finally understand?
NCT ID NCT07505719
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at whether using artificial intelligence to simplify medical handouts helps parents understand their child's bone condition better. About 80 parents of children treated at a special surgery hospital will read either the original or an AI-simplified version and then take a short quiz. The goal is to see if simpler language leads to better comprehension.
