The literature regarding its performance in urogynecology is scarce. The aim of the present study is to assess ChatGPT\u2019s ability to accurately answer commonly asked urogynecology patient questions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>An expert panel of five board certified urogynecologists and two fellows developed ten commonly asked patient questions in a urogynecology office. Questions were phrased using diction and verbiage that a patient may use when asking a question over the internet. ChatGPT responses were evaluated using the Brief DISCERN (BD) tool, a validated scoring system for online health care information. Scores\u2009\u2265\u200916 are consistent with good-quality content. Responses were graded based on their accuracy and consistency with expert opinion and published guidelines.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The average score across all ten questions was 18.9\u2009\u00b1\u20092.7. Nine out of ten (90%) questions had a response that was determined to be of good quality (BD\u2009\u2265\u200916). The lowest scoring topic was \u201cPelvic Organ Prolapse\u201d (mean BD\u2009=\u200914.0\u2009\u00b1\u20092.0). The highest scoring topic was \u201cInterstitial Cystitis\u201d (mean BD\u2009=\u200922.0\u2009\u00b1\u20090). ChatGPT provided no references for its responses.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>ChatGPT provided high-quality responses to 90% of the questions based on an expert panel\u2019s review with the BD tool.
