Virtual, augmented, and mixed reality: potential clinical and training applications in pediatrics.

ABSTRACT:

Background

COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the field of medical training, necessitating innovative approaches to education and practice. During this period, the use of novel technologies like virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), and mixed reality (MR) has become increasingly vital. These technologies offer the advantage of transcending the limitations of time and space, thus enabling medical professionals to access various personalized programs for both education and service delivery. This shift is particularly relevant in the realm of pediatric medicine, where traditional training and clinical methods face unique challenges.

Purpose

The primary aim of this study is to explore the application of VR, AR, and MR technologies in pediatric medical settings,
