Prehospital Provider Training With Augmented Reality (AR)

NCT05686590 | Completed

• 1 other identifier: 67544
• Study Type: interventional
• Target: 22
• Locations: 1 country
• Sites: 2

Brief Summary

The goal is to evaluate the acceptance of Augmented Reality (AR) simulation as a learning modality for prehospital providers. The simulation itself is grounded in traditional best practices for simulation delivery and design as well as prior literature on simulation training for prehospital providers; the focus of this study is the participants' experiential interaction with AR and the simulation resources.

Conditions

Hypoglycemia; Pediatric ALL

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Thematic Analysis of Post-Simulation Discussions

  The primary aim is to study the acceptance of AR simulation amongst prehospital providers via thematic analysis of semi-structured discussions using qualitative research methods.

  Duration of post-simulation debrief (15-20 minutes)

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• System Usability Scale (SUS)

  Duration of Intervention (less than one hour)

• Headset Ergonomics

  Duration of Intervention (less than one hour)

Study Arms (1)

Augmented Reality Enhanced Simulation (Treatment group)

EXPERIMENTAL

Each simulation will have between two and five participants. After consent, demographic data will be collected. Then, a study RA will fit a Magic Leap One (ML1) headsets (Magic Leap Inc., Plantation, FL) to participants. Following a scripted briefing, the instructor will also orient the participants to the ML1 headset for those in that group. After orienting the participant to the use of the headsets, the instructor will remain in a room separate from the participants, who will conduct the scenario outside. This will enable assessment of the feasibility of providing simulation instruction remotely. Prior to starting the scenario, the simulation instructor will conduct an orientation to review the core tenets of effective communication skills during prehospital care.

Behavioral: Augmented Reality Headset

Interventions

Augmented Reality Headset BEHAVIORAL

The simulation scenario will be a pediatric hypoglycemia-induced seizure case, which will be done through an AR simulation. AR (Augmented Reality) headset, which is a device that the participants will wear over their head and eyes and will add holographic elements to a live view of workplace training scenario.
