Perceptions About Augmented Reality in Remote Medical Care: Interview Study of Emergency Telemedicine Providers.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) have increasingly appeared in the medical literature in the past decade, with AR recently being studied for its potential role in remote health care delivery and communication. Recent literature describes AR's implementation in real-time telemedicine contexts across multiple specialties and settings, with remote emergency services in particular using AR to enhance disaster support and simulation education. Despite the introduction of AR in the medical literature and its potential to shape the future of remote medical services, studies have yet to investigate the perspectives of telemedicine providers regarding this novel technology.

Objective

This study aimed to understand the applications and challenges of AR in tel
