Impact of an Ambient AI Scribe on Medical Student Objective Structured Clinical Examination Notes: Nonrandomized Clinical Trial
Talwalkar J, Wright D, Schwamm L, Leydon G, Shabanova V. Impact of an Ambient AI Scribe on Medical Student Objective Structured Clinical Examination Notes: Nonrandomized Clinical Trial. JMIR Medical Education 2026, 12: e88264. PMID: 42125891, PMCID: PMC13273210, DOI: 10.2196/88264.Peer-Reviewed Original ResearchThis study investigates the impact of an AI scribe on medical student clinical notes, showing little effect on note quality overall but potential benefits for lower-performing students.Ambient AI Scribes to Create Educational Feedback Notes for Medical Students: Randomized Trial
