ABSTRACT

The development of artificial intelligence systems is revolutionizing many fields of medicine, but specific studies are still missing in pediatrics. In our study, we showed that an untrained free-to-use large language model provided reliable responses regarding antibiotic prescription for 13 primary-care scenarios of pediatric infections.
