| Summary: | Aim: We aimed to evaluate the quality and readability of ChatGPT’s answers to frequently asked questions about fibromyalgia (FM).
Material and Methods: The most frequently searched terms related to FM were identified using Google Trends and entered into the ChatGPT-4 model in order of their rankings. The responses were categorized using the Ensuring Quality Information for Patients (EQIP) tool and evaluated based on quality and readability. Quality and readability were assessed with EQIP, the Flesch-Kincaid Grade Level (FKGL), and the Flesch-Kincaid Reading Ease (FKRE).
Results: According to Google Trends data, the search frequency for the term “FM” increased from 2004 to 2024, with a peak of 100% in March 2020. ChatGPT’s responses were assessed in terms of both quality and readability, revealing notable shortcomings. The average scores for EQIP, FKGL, and FKRE were 39.89, 13.29, and 21.41, respectively. Furthermore, the statistical analysis among the four categories showed no significant variations in EQIP, FKGL, and FKRE scores.
Conclusion: Our study revealed significant deficiencies in the quality of ChatGPT’s responses regarding FM. There is a need for more understandable and reliable information to improve communication in healthcare. |
