Virtual reality trains doctors to save Mothers' lives
NCT ID NCT07403526
Summary
This study tested whether a 9-day virtual reality (VR) training program could help junior doctors in Zambia learn a complex surgery called a postpartum hysterectomy, which is used to stop severe bleeding after childbirth. Researchers compared the VR training to standard clinical education for 33 doctors. They found that doctors who used the VR training improved their surgical skills, knowledge, and confidence more than those who received standard training alone.
