Breaking Boundaries in Spinal Surgery: GPT-4's Quest to Revolutionize Surgical Site Infection Management.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Surgical site infection (SSI) is a common and costly complication in spinal surgery. Identifying risk factors and preventive strategies is crucial for reducing SSIs. Generative Pre-trained Transformer 4 (GPT-4) has evolved from a simple text-based tool to a sophisticated multimodal data expert, invaluable for clinicians. This study explored GPT-4's applications in SSI management across various clinical scenarios.

Methods

GPT-4 was employed in clinical scenarios related to SSIs in spinal surgery. Researchers designed specific questions for GPT-4 to generate tailored responses. Six evaluators assessed the responses for logic and accuracy using a 5-point Likert scale. Interrater consistency was measured with Fleiss' kappa, and radar charts visualized GPT-4's performa
