ChatGPT-4 appears useful for extracting details from reports on thrombectomy procedures in stroke patients, a labor-intensive and error-prone task currently performed by human readers, according to a group in Germany. Such “data mining” by ChatGPT could provide an alternative to manual methods for building stroke registries, with the data being key to improving the quality of stroke care, noted lead author Nils Lehnen, MD, of University Hospital Bonn, and colleagues. “Procedural details of mechanical thrombectomy in patients with ischemic stroke are predictors of clinical outcome and are collected for prospective s...
