Generative artificial intelligence (AI) models are a new technological development with vast research use cases among medical subspecialties. These powerful large language models offer a wide range of possibilities in wound care, from personalized patient support to optimized treatment plans and improved scientific writing. They can also assist in efficiently navigating the literature and selecting and summarizing articles, enabling researchers to focus on impactful studies relevant to wound care management and enhancing response quality through prompt-learning iterations. For nonnative English-speaking medical practitioners and authors, generative AI may aid in grammar and vocabulary selection. Although reports have suggested limitations of the conversational agent on medical translation pertaining to the precise interpretation of medical context, when used with verified resources, this language model can breach language barriers and promote practice-changing advancements in global wound care. Further, AI-powered chatbots can enable continuous monitoring of wound healing progress and real-time insights into treatment responses through frequent, readily available remote patient follow-ups.However, implementing AI in wound care research requires careful consideration of potential limitations, especially in accurately translating complex medical terms and workflows. Ethical considerations are vital to ensure reliable and credible wound care research when using AI technologies. Although ChatGPT shows promise for transforming wound care management, the authors warn against overreliance on the technology. Considering the potential limitations and risks, proper validation and oversight are essential to unlock its true potential while ensuring patient safety and the effectiveness of wound care treatments.
