Abstract

Objectives: To develop a large language model (LLM) based feedback system to improve the efficiency of case report writing in novice rehabilitation staff education.

Design: A sequential mixed methods study.

Methods: We conducted a preliminary survey to identify burdensome feedback tasks and developed prompts using the Claude 3 Opus. We implemented the feedback system with Google Apps Script and Slack chatbots. Effectiveness and usability were evaluated through surveys. The study included five novice rehabilitation staff who joined our hospital in April 2024.

Results: All novice staff reported that the LLM feedback was equivalent to previous human feedback and helpful for their learning. The System Usability Scale (SUS) scores showed high usability (median: 90, range: 70-95). Three instructors (60%) agreed the system saved time and reduced guidance sessions, while four (80%) felt it would alleviate their future burden. However, opinions varied regarding the feedback content's suitability and its potential to enhance novice staff learning outcomes.

Conclusion: The LLM-based feedback system for case reports showed potential to reduce instructors' burden and provided an efficient learning environment for novice rehabilitation staff. Future research should focus on system revision and further evaluation.
