Feasibility of virtual reality-based simulation for neonatal resuscitation training: a pilot study at an international site.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Virtual reality (VR) offers immersive training experiences that can address limitations of traditional neonatal resuscitation training. Building on prior U.S.-based research, we evaluated the feasibility of deploying a VR-based neonatal resuscitation model in an international setting.

Methods

Healthcare providers at Ho Chi Minh City Children's Hospital in Vietnam participated in a single-arm feasibility study using VR-based training. Sessions employed a team-based approach with physicians, nurses, and allied health professionals and included knowledge review, platform orientation, and a simulated resuscitation scenario based on the Neonatal Resuscitation Program. The simulation was delivered in English with real-time Vietnamese translation. Participants completed
