Physician vs Artificial Intelligence Counseling Before Elective Cesarean Delivery: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Sponsor: Wolfson Medical Center
Summary
This randomized controlled trial will compare two methods of providing preoperative counseling before elective cesarean delivery: counseling by an obstetrician-gynecologist and counseling delivered through an artificial intelligence (AI)-based system. The study aims to evaluate the effects of these counseling methods on patients' anxiety levels, understanding of medical information, and satisfaction with the counseling process. Women scheduled for elective cesarean delivery will be randomly assigned to receive either standard physician counseling or AI-based counseling containing the same medical information. Anxiety, knowledge, and satisfaction will be assessed using questionnaires before and after counseling.
