Summary

Monocentric study, aiming to assess the improvement of medical students to perform a first-time thoracentesis after training using a specific training using an augmented virtual reality simulator, versus standard training.

Study population: medical students from the department of Respirology (University hospital of Strasbourg), performing their first thoracocentesis in patients having an indication for a first-time thoracocentesis.

This is not an interventional study, no change in patient course being induced because of the study.

After the procedure: use of specific surveys for the patient and for medical students to assess the patient's pain, the patient and the medical student level of anxiety, and the student ability during the procedure.
