Summary
ChatGPT shows significant promise as an informational tool for patient inquiries about bariatric surgery. In an evaluation of its performance on 151 patient questions from both professional societies and Facebook groups, surgeons rated its answers as "comprehensive" for a wide majority (86.8%) of the queries. ChatGPT excelled in categories such as the efficacy of different procedures, patient eligibility criteria, and available surgical options, demonstrating a high level of knowledge and a robust ability to communicate that knowledge. These strengths suggest it can effectively complement the patient information efforts of healthcare providers by offering easily accessible, comprehensible responses to common questions. However, while it provided accurate and informed guidance, the reproducibility rate of 90.7% indicated some variability in repeated uses of the technology. This implies that while ChatGPT can serve as a valuable supplemental resource, it should not replace the nuanced, personalized expertise of healthcare professionals in clinical settings. The findings suggest potential applications in enhancing patient education and reducing the informational burden on healthcare providers, though further research into improving its deployment and integration into clinical workflows would be beneficial for maximizing its impact on patient care outcomes.
