Abstract
Postoperative complications in rhinoplasty require prompt intervention for optimal
outcomes. ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence (AI) tool, offers potential for assisting
in postoperative care.
This study aims to assess ChatGPT's effectiveness in providing guidance for various
rhinoplasty complications.
Different complication scenarios were input into ChatGPT. Responses were categorized
into “Contact Surgeon” or “Follow Postoperative Instructions.”
ChatGPT consistently advised immediate surgeon contact for infection. For other complications,
it recommended monitoring and adhering to instructions while suggesting surgeon contact
if concerns persisted.
ChatGPT shows promise in aiding patients' postoperative care by accurately identifying
cases necessitating communication with surgeons or emergency care. This research underscores
AI's potential in enhancing patient-centered care and contributes to the evolving
landscape of health care practices.
