Summary

This study is a two-arm parallel randomized controlled non-inferiority trial designed to compare the educational effectiveness of virtual reality (VR)-based simulation with high-fidelity simulation (HFS) for emergency management training in medical interns.

Participants will be randomized 1:1 to either VR-based training or HFS-based training for managing desaturation and anaphylaxis scenarios. After training and structured debriefing, all participants will undergo objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs) and complete pre- and post-training surveys.

The primary outcome is OSCE performance score. Secondary outcomes include confidence improvement, participant satisfaction, usability (UEQ-S).

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Virtual Reality-Based Emergency Simulation

Participants use an immersive VR platform to manage simulated patients with oxygen desaturation and anaphylaxis.

BEHAVIORAL

High-Fidelity Simulation

Participants use a high-fidelity simulator (Sim-Man) to manage the same emergency scenarios.
