Evaluation of an Artificial Intelligence-Driven Language Model for Age-Specific Patient Education in Pediatric Orthopaedics
Background: Describing complex orthopaedic surgical procedures and diagnoses to pediatric patients across a large age range and at varying levels of health literacy can be quite challenging. Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) offers a potential solution by providing real-time age specific explanations for pediatric patients. The use of GenAI large language models (LLMs) could potentially allow providers to more effectively communicate complex medical problems in an age-appropriate and comprehensible mann…
ChatGPT-4 produced explanations that became progressively less readable for older age prompts, and seven pediatric orthopaedic surgeons rated their accuracy highly and felt comfortable using them in clinical settings.

How to verify without trusting this page
Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-1604 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
