Area of Science:

Medical Education
Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare
Virtual Reality Simulation

Background:

Effective sepsis management requires strong interprofessional communication.
Virtual reality (VR) simulation is a proven method for sepsis team training.
Scalability of VR training is limited by uneven student numbers; AI offers a solution.

Purpose of the Study:

To compare the effectiveness of an AI-powered doctor versus a human-controlled doctor in VR sepsis team training for nursing students.
To evaluate impacts on sepsis care knowledge, interprofessional communication skills, and self-efficacy.

Main Methods:

A randomized controlled trial involved 64 nursing students in VR sepsis training.
Participants were assigned to either an AI-powered doctor group or a human-controlled (medical student) group.
Assessments included simulation-based performance, sepsis knowledge tests, and communication self-efficacy questionnaires.

Main Results:

Both groups improved communication knowledge and self-efficacy.
The AI group showed significant improvement in sepsis care knowledge, unlike the human-controlled group.
While sepsis care performance and communication performance showed no significant differences, the AI group scored higher in sepsis knowledge.

Conclusions:

AI-powered doctors are a viable alternative to human-controlled VR for sepsis training, enhancing scalability.
Future AI development should focus on improving sociability for better interprofessional communication training.
Combining AI and human-controlled VR may optimize future sepsis care and communication training.
