Effect of Mixed Reality on Delivery of Emergency Medical Care in a Simulated Environment: A Pilot Randomized Crossover Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Mixed-reality (MR) technology has the potential to enhance care delivery, but there remains a paucity of evidence for its efficacy and feasibility.

Objective

To assess the efficacy and feasibility of MR technology to enhance emergency care delivery in a simulated environment.

Design, setting, and participants

This pilot randomized crossover trial was conducted from September to November 2021 at a single center in a high-fidelity simulated environment with participants block randomized to standard care (SC) or MR-supported care (MR-SC) groups. Participants were 22 resident-grade physicians working in acute medical and surgical specialties prospectively recruited from a single UK Academic Health Sciences Centre. Data were analyzed from September to December 2
