1. When AI drafts a neonatal phototherapy threshold narrative, what specific patient data points must be organized to create a defensible plan?

   1. Birth weight, length, and head circumference
   2. Blood type, maternal antibodies, and feeding history
   3. Age in hours, gestational age, and risk factors
   4. Temperature, heart rate, and respiratory rate

2. A pediatrician receives an AI-drafted phototherapy narrative for a 36-hour-old infant. The document provides a specific bilirubin threshold number but does not indicate which clinical practice guideline curve was used. What is the primary risk?

   1. The AI cannot legally authorize treatment
   2. The number may trigger unnecessary parental anxiety
   3. The pediatrician may not be able to defend the decision to parents who research the topic
   4. The document will be rejected by hospital administration

3. Which of the following is a capability that AI demonstrates when processing raw notes about neonatal jaundice?

   1. Restructuring disorganized notes into a coherent, decision-ready summary
   2. Deciding which family members need separate conversations about the treatment plan
   3. Selecting the specific phototherapy equipment to use
   4. Determining whether the parents will accept phototherapy based on their cultural beliefs

4. An AI system generates a phototherapy plan that includes a specific treatment threshold. The pediatrician notices the plan does not flag any unresolved questions. What should the physician be concerned about?

   1. The AI has exceeded its computational capacity
   2. The hospital's EHR system is malfunctioning
   3. The AI may have overlooked implicit questions that the inputs imply
   4. The infant does not actually need phototherapy

5. What two explicit elements should an AI-drafted neonatal phototherapy narrative include for physician review?

   1. A literature review and continuing education credits
   2. The nurse's contact information and pharmacy hours
   3. A headline framing, three substantive points with caveats, and two explicit decisions or asks
   4. A billing code and insurance pre-authorization request

6. A neonatal unit uses AI to draft phototherapy narratives. The AI produces a document quoting a bilirubin threshold of 15 mg/dL for a term infant at 72 hours. The hospital currently uses a different clinical guideline. Why must the pediatrician verify this number before parent communication?

   1. Parents will research the threshold and may challenge outdated values
   2. The AI is required to match hospital billing codes
   3. The threshold is above the legal liability threshold
   4. AI-generated numbers are always estimates and cannot be used clinically

7. Which task remains beyond AI's capability even when drafting technical neonatal documentation?

   1. Generating grammatically correct prose
   2. Reading the room when concerns are political, ethical, or relational rather than analytical
   3. Identifying gaps in clinical notes
   4. Organizing clinical data into a logical sequence

8. A pediatrician receives an AI-drafted phototherapy plan that includes a specific decision point requiring specialist consultation. However, the document does not identify which stakeholders need separate conversations before the plan is finalized. What does this illustrate?

   1. An appropriate scope of AI functionality—deciding stakeholder communication needs requires human judgment
   2. The parents have declined all communication
   3. The AI has malfunctioned and requires restart
   4. The hospital has a policy against AI stakeholder recommendations

9. What is the primary value of having AI draft neonatal phototherapy narratives rather than relying solely on physician-authored documentation?

   1. AI guarantees zero medical errors
   2. AI eliminates the need for physician training in neonatal care
   3. AI automatically orders laboratory tests
   4. AI can quickly restructure raw notes into a coherent, decision-ready format

10. A hospital implements AI documentation for neonatal bilirubin management. During quality review, physicians note that AI-generated narratives sometimes omit important risk factors present in the raw clinical notes. What is the most likely explanation?

    1. The hospital's AI system is outdated
    2. The physicians are not entering complete notes
    3. The AI is deliberately hiding information to reduce liability
    4. The AI may have surface unresolved questions that inputs imply but failed to highlight them

11. What must occur before a pediatrician signs off on an AI-drafted phototherapy threshold narrative?

    1. The parents must sign a consent form for AI-generated care
    2. The narrative must be reviewed by a hospital lawyer
    3. The AI must certify the document is error-free
    4. The two explicit decisions or asks identified by AI must be resolved

12. A pediatrician wants to use an AI-drafted narrative to discuss phototherapy with parents. The AI document contains a specific bilirubin threshold but no caveat language. What concern does this raise?

    1. The hospital will not pay for treatment
    2. The parents will refuse treatment
    3. The document lacks the three substantive points with caveats the clinical standard requires
    4. The AI has violated copyright law

13. An AI system generates a phototherapy narrative that quotes a specific bilirubin threshold from a 2005 clinical guideline. The current hospital standard uses a 2022 guideline with different thresholds. What is the specific risk if this goes to parents unchanged?

    1. Parents will sue the hospital for using outdated care
    2. The AI will be deactivated
    3. The hospital will lose Medicare reimbursement
    4. Parents will anchor on the quoted number and question any deviation

14. In the context of AI-drafted neonatal documentation, what does 'reading the room' refer to?

    1. Recognizing when concerns are political, ethical, or relational rather than analytical
    2. Assessing the physical layout of the neonatal unit
    3. Reviewing the infant's electronic chart
    4. Checking vital signs on the monitor

15. When using AI to draft neonatal phototherapy documentation, what is the physician's primary role in the final document?

    1. To resolve the explicit decisions or asks and verify clinical accuracy before sign-off
    2. To transcribe the AI output without changes
    3. To delegate final approval to nursing staff
    4. To obtain parental consent before the AI generates any content
