NCT07476638

Brief Summary

Objective: To evaluate the impact of real-time AI feedback on fetal biometry accuracy and investigate the Expertise Reversal Effect-whether AI benefits diminish as user experience increases. Design: A stratified randomized trial of 75 participants (25 Novices, 25 Intermediates, 25 Experts). Users are randomized 1:1 to either AI-assisted or manual measurement groups. Outcomes:

  • Primary: EFW accuracy (MAPE) compared to actual birthweight.
  • Secondary: Procedure time, image quality, error relative to baseline scans, and cognitive workload (NASA-TLX).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • To evaluate the sensitivity to change in ultrasound measurement accuracy when using AI-feedback compared to standard scanning

    Mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), defined as the absolute difference between estimated fetal weight (EFW) and actual birth weight (ABW) divided by actual birth weight and expressed as a percentage, for AI-assisted and manual fetal biometry.

    The two scans will be performed within a timeframe of 14 days.

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Procedural Efficacy

    The duration of the scan, maximum of 30 minutes

  • Image Quality

    Through study completion, an average of 1 year.

  • Cognitive and Physiological Load

    During the ultrasound procedure (GSR) and immediately following the procedure (NASA-TLX), approximately 30 minutes in total.

  • Measurement Deviation:

    The duration from pre study scan and study scan.

  • Experience Threshold for AI-Mediated Accuracy Gains

    Through study completion, an average of 1 year.

Study Arms (2)

Control Group

NO INTERVENTION

Participants in the control arm perform fetal biometry using standard manual techniques without any AI assistance.

AI intervention Group

EXPERIMENTAL

The software provides real-time "traffic light" or score-based feedback to validate when the correct anatomical plane (BPD, HC, AC, or FL) has been reached.

Device: AI interventional group

Interventions

Participants in the intervention arm perform fetal biometry with the assistance of real-time Artificial Intelligence (AI) feedback software.
