La intel·ligència artificial al servei del malalt: L’ús de ChatGPT per a millorar la comprensibilitat dels informes mèdics

Abstract

In this article, we explore the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) tools to improve doctor-patient communication, particularly in the reinterpretation of medical reports. We explore the use of chatbots, such as ChatGPT, to adapt and simplify complex medical texts for patients. We highlight the benefits of AI in improving the readability of reports, with a pilot study demonstrating a 19–31% improvement in patient understanding. We also emphasise the need for human oversight, particularly to ensure the accuracy and confidentiality of clinical information. We mention future applications, including multilingual adaptation and tools to support the doctor-patient conversation.
