Healthcare advancements are driven by research and healthcare settings play a crucial role in this process by recruiting patients to take part.

Here, Sophie Park, our Professor of Primary Care and Clinical Education discusses recent research she conducted with colleagues across the UK to examine the benefits of taking part in research for primary care practices.

The AI Scribe Study
‘AI Scribes’ are digital tools that use artificial intelligence to transcribe consultations in real-time, and create summaries that can be added to patients’ medical notes. Their use in general practice settings appears to be increasing at a rapid rate. They are promoted as reducing administrative tasks and freeing up time. However, their use may bring challenges. Some believe AI Scribes could affect how care is delivered, change consultations, worsen health inequalities, or cause other harms. In this fast-moving area, there remain many unknowns about how they may influence quality of care, in ways that are potentially long term and unintended.
