Abstract

Background

The operating room (OR) is an intimidating environment for novice anesthesia learners. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of introduction to commonly-used anesthesia equipment in virtual escape room simulations through augmented reality (AR) in comparison to virtual reality (VR).

Sample

Eighty-seven first-year graduate student registered nurse anesthetists completed a virtual simulated escape room experience.

Methods

A descriptive study was conducted over three years with data from three cohorts.

Results

In the AR cohort, 98% of learners found the AR user-friendly while 84% of learners found the application effective to become familiar with anesthesia equipment. With the VR cohort, 95% of learners found the VR user-friendly while 98% of learners indicated the application helped them understand use of the equipment.

Conclusion

Both AR and VR were reported as feasible and demonstrated comparable acceptability. Faculty should have a back-up plan for those who may experience cybersickness.

虚拟逃生室模拟在增强现实与虚拟现实中对麻醉新手的可行性和可接受性

背景手术室（OR）对于麻醉新手来说是一个令人生畏的环境。本研究旨在评估通过增强现实（AR）与虚拟现实（VR）相比，在虚拟逃生室模拟中介绍常用麻醉设备的可行性和可接受性.SampleEighty-seven第一年研究生注册麻醉师护士完成了虚拟模拟逃生室体验.MethodsA descriptive study was conducted over three years with data from three cohorts.Results在AR队列中，98%的学习者认为AR对用户友好，84%的学习者认为该应用能有效熟悉麻醉设备。在 VR 学员中，95% 的学员认为 VR 对用户友好，98% 的学员表示该应用程序有助于他们了解设备的使用。教员应为可能出现晕机的学员制定备用计划。

期刊介绍： Clinical Simulation in Nursing is an international, peer reviewed journal published online monthly. Clinical Simulation in Nursing is the official journal of the International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation & Learning (INACSL) and reflects its mission to advance the science of healthcare simulation. We will review and accept articles from other health provider disciplines, if they are determined to be of interest to our readership. The journal accepts manuscripts meeting one or more of the following criteria: Research articles and literature reviews (e.g. systematic, scoping, umbrella, integrative, etc.) about simulation Innovative teaching/learning strategies using simulation Articles updating guidelines, regulations, and legislative policies that impact simulation Leadership for simulation Simulation operations Clinical and academic uses of simulation.
