Background
Thepracticeofmedicinehastraditionallyreliedonanapprenticeshipmodelforclinicaltraining–anapproachinwhichbedsideteachingwastheprimarysourceforknowledgetransfer.However,thefrequencyofbedsideteachingisdecliningduetodutyhourrestrictions,increasedpatientturnover,andcompetingdemandsforphysicians'
time.
Alternativestobedsideteachinghaveemergedincludingsimulation-basedmedicaleducationthoughcurrentapproachesarelimitedinapplicabilitytoandfunctionalityforpediatrictraining.Forinstance,standardizedpatientsarenotavailableformanypediatricconditionsespeciallyfordiseasesthatpredominantlyaffectinfants.Moreover,patientsimulatorsoftencannotdisplaycriticalphysicalexamfindingsfordiscriminatingbetweensickandhealthypatients(egmentalstatus,workofbreathing,perfusionchanges).
Anemergingeducationalmodality,immersivevirtualreality(VR),couldpotentiallyfillthisgap.ImmersiveVRutilizesathree-dimensional,computergeneratedenvironmentinwhichusersinteractwithgraphicalcharacters(avatars).Whilescreen-basedsimulationtraininghasbeendemonstratedtoenhancelearningoutcomes,immersiveVRhasthepotentialtohaveabroaderimpactthroughincreasedlearnerengagement,andimprovedspatialrepresentationandlearningcontextualization.Todate,thistechnologyhasdemonstratedeffectivenessincommunicationskillstraining;
