Abstract
Patient education is essential for managing conditions like acute appendicitis, cholecystitis, and hydrocele, as it empowers patients to seek timely medical intervention, which can dramatically improve outcomes. Artificial intelligence tools are increasingly integral in healthcare, enhancing the delivery and accessibility of patient education. This study aims to compare the effectiveness of ChatGPT and Google Gemini in creating patient education guides on acute appendicitis, cholecystitis, and hydrocele. In this cross-sectional study, we generated patient education brochures for three diseases using two AI tools, ChatGPT and Google Gemini. The responses were evaluated based on several variables including word count, sentence length, readability (assessed with the Flesch-Kincaid Calculator), similarity (analyzed using Quillbot), and reliability (measured by the Modified DISCERN Score). Statistical analyses were performed using unpaired t-tests and Pearson’s correlation coefficients. The analysis revealed that there were no significant differences in readability scores, word counts, sentence lengths, or reliability scores between the materials produced by ChatGPT and Google Gemini. Additionally, correlation analyses indicated a positive correlation for ease scores and a negative correlation for reliability scores between the tools, though these findings were not statistically significant. The study concludes that ChatGPT and Google Gemini are equally effective in producing patient education materials for acute appendicitis, cholecystitis, and hydrocele. The absence of significant differences between the two AI tools suggests their potential utility as educational resources in healthcare settings.
