| dc.description.abstract | This study aims to evaluate the capacity of ChatGPT-4 to provide accurate and reliable information about febrile seizures, focusing on its ability to deliver educational content and support caregivers and healthcare professionals. Materials and Methods: A total of 30 questions related to febrile seizures were derived from the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) website. These questions were categorized into five main themes: "overview of febrile seizures," "symptoms and causes," "diagnosis," "treatment and management strategies," and "advice for families." Responses generated by ChatGPT-4 were assessed by experienced pediatricians and neurologists for accuracy and educational value, with results compared against ChatGPT-3.5 and the NINDS guidelines. Results: Of the 30 responses evaluated, 22 were classified as "educationally valuable," 7 as "accurate but insufficient," and 1 as a "mix of correct and outdated information." None of the responses were deemed completely incorrect. In comparison with ChatGPT-3.5, ChatGPT-4 provided "better" responses for 8 questions, "similar" responses for 20, and "worse" responses for 2. Compared to the NINDS guidelines, ChatGPT-4 delivered comparable or superior responses in most cases, except for four questions where the official guidelines performed better due to richer context and graphical support. Conclusion: ChatGPT-4 demonstrates substantial potential as an educational tool for febrile seizures, offering accurate and comprehensible information to caregivers and healthcare professionals. However, limitations such as the lack of detailed explanations and visual aids highlight the need for further development. Future research should explore broader datasets and user feedback to optimize these tools for personalized medical education. | |
