Abstract:
Augmented reality (AR) is one of the emerging technologies of today. It has the potential to offer a novel approach to medical training that supplements conventional training methods with gamification and a more interactive learning experience. In emergency medicine, AR has benefits and feasibility in the clinical care of patients, in operating rooms and inpatient facilities, and in the education and training of emergency care providers. To further explore the role of AR in teaching management of anaphylactic shock to family doctors a single blinded, randomized controlled trial will be conducted. All participants will be involved in a one-day education program, consisting of lectures and skills practice. The test group will additionally engage in education about anaphylactic shock in augmented reality. The baseline will be assessed in a learning environment through a simulation based on the developed scenario. The simulation will be independently assessed with a developed evaluation scale by three experts. Participants will perform the simulation again after the intervention. After 1 and 12 months a simulation will be repeated in the participants' workplace with a standardized patient. We expect to prove that augmented reality is an efficient educational tool for emergency care at the primary health care level.
