From Traditional to Digital: Transforming Obstetrics and Gynecology Education through Personalized Learning Algorithms of Osmosis.

Introduction: In the past decade, the expansion of digital technologies in medical education has led to a transformation of traditional learning methods. The Osmosis platform, by providing video‑based content, quizzes, and adaptive learning algorithms, has become one of the most effective tools in medical education. The aim of this study is to examine the role and effectiveness of Osmosis in obstetrics and gynecology specialty training.
Methods: This study was conducted as a systematic review by searching reputable databases such as Science Direct, Google Scholar, PubMed, and Scopus. The keywords used included “Osmosis AND medical education”, “e-learning in residency programs”, and “digital tools in obstetrics and gynecology training”. Publications published between 2015 and 2024 were reviewed. Inclusion criteria included full-text availability, English language, and direct relevance to obstetrics and gynecology education through Osmosis.
Results:  Osmosis covers key topics such as pregnancy diagnosis, preeclampsia and eclampsia, menstrual disorders, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), and gestational diabetes. The micro learning format of this platform, featuring 5- to 10-minute videos, educational animations, and concise explanations, makes learning flexible and effective. This system is widely used by students, residents, and physicians for exam preparation and continuing education. Its advantages include 24/7 access, personalized learning, improved information retention, and skill enhancement. However, subscription costs, internet dependency, and the lack of direct interaction with an instructor are considered its challenges.
Conclusion: Osmosis is a powerful tool in digital education that enhances the teaching and learning process in the field of obstetrics and gynecology by providing concise, evidence-based, and personalized content. Although it improves memory retention and clinical readiness, it has limitations such as cost, internet dependency, and the lack of practical training; therefore, it should be used as a supplementary resource alongside a more comprehensive educational framework. The future of obstetrics and gynecology education lies in combining the strengths of platforms like Osmosis with localized, accessible, and sustainable digital solutions.
