About this trial
This multicenter cluster-randomized study evaluates the impact of an artificial intelligence (AI) tool on the satisfaction of healthcare professionals and patients in outpatient consultations, measuring its effect on perceived satisfaction (through a visual analog scale), the duration of consultations, and the quality and quantity of clinical data recorded. Adult patients (18-80 years) seen in outpatient centers will participate, comparing those using the AI tool with centers following the usual procedure. The tool is expected to reduce the administrative burden, improve user satisfaction and increase the efficiency and quality of the clinical registry. Recruitment will take place between December 2024 and May 2025, with final analysis planned for the end of 2025.
