Artificial Intelligence and Objective Structured Clinical Examinations: Using ChatGPT to Revolutionize Clinical Skills Assessment in Medical Education

2024 | Sanghamitra M. Misra and Srinivasan Suresh
This article explores the integration of ChatGPT into Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) in medical education. OSCEs are essential for evaluating medical trainees, but they are time-consuming and resource-intensive for educators. ChatGPT offers a solution by assisting educators in creating and administering OSCEs efficiently. It can help develop case scenarios, train standardized patients (SPs), and provide feedback to trainees. ChatGPT can also reduce trainee stress by simulating realistic clinical scenarios and offering real-time feedback. However, the accuracy of ChatGPT's outputs must be validated for medical correctness, and compliance with regulations like FERPA must be considered. ChatGPT can significantly aid in OSCE preparation by generating customized cases, creating SP checklists, and assisting in SP training. It can also help in developing assessment methods and grading rubrics. ChatGPT can simulate clinical interactions, allowing SPs to practice and receive feedback. Additionally, it can help in creating and administering OSCEs for various medical specialties, including those assessing communication skills and new clinical skills. ChatGPT can also assist trainees in preparing for OSCEs by providing real-time feedback and improving their communication and clinical reasoning skills. However, trainees should not rely solely on ChatGPT for medical knowledge, as it may not always provide accurate information. AI-driven platforms like Geeky Medics and OSCELab are already being used to prepare students for OSCEs. The article emphasizes the importance of using AI in medical education with caution, ensuring medical accuracy and adherence to regulations. ChatGPT has the potential to revolutionize medical education by providing an innovative platform for practice and feedback. Medical educators should guide trainees in the appropriate use of AI, emphasizing the importance of medical ethics and existing frameworks like public health ethics. The integration of ChatGPT into medical education marks a significant advancement, offering a promising future where AI complements traditional teaching methods in addressing curricular needs such as communication assessments and OSCE grading rubrics.This article explores the integration of ChatGPT into Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) in medical education.
