Brief Summary

This study aimed to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of an augmented reality (AR)-based self-learning platform for novices to set up a ventilator without on-site assistance. This was a prospective randomized controlled pilot study conducted at Samsung Medical Center, Korea from January to February 2022. Nurses with no prior experience of MV or AR were enrolled. We randomized the participants into two groups: manual and AR groups. Participants in the manual group used a printed manual and made a phone call for assistance, whereas participants in the AR group were guided by AR-based instructions and requested assistance with the head-mounted device (HMD). We compared the overall score of the procedure, required level of assistance, and user's experience between the groups.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• the overall score of the procedure

  a 100-point scale converted from the original score. The participants scored 1 point for each step if they successfully finished the step within five minutes and obtained a maximum score of 35.

  30 minutes

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• the required level of assistance

  30 minutes

Other Outcomes (1)

• Usability

  30 minutes

Study Arms (2)

AR group

EXPERIMENTAL

participants in the AR group were guided by AR-based instructions and requested assistance with the head-mounted device.

Device: AR guidance with Hololens 2

manual group

NO INTERVENTION

Participants in the manual group used a printed manual and made a phone call for assistance.

Interventions

AR guidance with Hololens 2 DEVICE

The AR instructions were developed as a step-by-step guide with the same text and images as in the printed manual, utilizing the dynamic 365 Guide (Software, Microsoft Corporation, Redmond, WA, USA). The AR instructions were delivered using the Microsoft HoloLens 2.
