Article Synopsis
- Simulation is the preferred method for teaching trauma management, with current exploration into virtual and augmented reality as alternative techniques.
- A systematic search yielded 3815 studies, with 13 ultimately included, showing that while VR is positively received by users, objective assessment is needed.
- VR is beneficial for training in trauma scenarios, but it won't replace traditional simulation soon; further research with larger groups is required for effective integration into medical education.
Background And Aims: Traditional apprenticeship-based surgical training presents with challenges, especially in acute scenarios. Simulation provides the current standard of facilitating surgical training in a low-risk environment but is restricted by limited accessibility and high costs. Virtual reality (VR) offers immersive three-dimensional computer-generated training scenarios and can connect users from various locations.
