Knowledge Gain and the Impact of Stress in a Fully Immersive Virtual Reality-Based Medical Emergencies Training With Automated Feedback: Randomized Controlled Trial.

ABSTRACT:

Background

A significant gap exists in the knowledge and procedural skills of medical graduates when it comes to managing emergencies. In response, highly immersive virtual reality (VR)-based learning environments have been developed to train clinical competencies. However, robust evidence on how VR-based methods affect both short- and long-term learning outcomes, as well as physiological and perceived stress, remains limited.

Objective

This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of VR-based simulation training, augmented with automated feedback, compared with video seminars at improving emergency medical competency among medical students. Furthermore, the study investigated the relationship between learning outcomes and physiological stress markers. The evaluation of parti
