Prehospital Provider Training With Augmented Reality (AR)

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Pediatric ALL; Hypoglycemia

• Registration Number: NCT05686590
• Lead Sponsor: Thomas Caruso

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.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Thematic Analysis of Post-Simulation Discussions	Duration of post-simulation debrief (15-20 minutes)	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.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
System Usability Scale (SUS)	Duration of Intervention (less than one hour)	The first secondary aim is to evaluate AR simulation usability amongst prehospital providers via the System Usability Scale (SUS).
Headset Ergonomics	Duration of Intervention (less than one hour)	The final secondary aim will evaluate the ergonomics of the headset via the ISO 9241-400 assessment of human-ergonomic factors.
