Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Surgical Simulation
  • Virtual Reality

Background:

  • Lumbar puncture (LP) is a frequent medical procedure with diverse indications.
  • Virtual reality (VR) offers a safe and effective platform for medical training.
  • This study introduces a novel 3D video designed for LP training.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design and evaluate a 3D video for lumbar puncture (LP) training.
  • To assess trainee satisfaction and perceived benefits of the 3D LP training video.
  • To explore the potential of VR in enhancing medical procedural education.

Main Methods:

  • A stereoscopic 180-degree 3D video of two LPs was recorded in a clinical setting.
  • The video was presented to third-year medical students and a group of residents/attendings.
  • Participant feedback was collected using satisfaction and comfort scales.

Main Results:

  • High satisfaction (4.7/5) and comfort (4.5/5) were reported by 168 participants.
  • Novice medical students showed greater satisfaction and perceived benefit compared to experienced practitioners.
  • Trainees favored the 3D aspect and supported developing similar VR tutorials for other procedures.

Conclusions:

  • A 3D video is an effective tool for lumbar puncture (LP) training.
  • Virtual reality (VR) integrated with simulation may improve knowledge retention and skill acquisition for medical procedures.
  • This technology holds potential for broader application in medical training curricula.
