Area of Science:

Medical Education Technology
Human-Computer Interaction
Simulation in Healthcare

Background:

Virtual Reality (VR) offers significant potential for medical education but lacks standardized criteria for product selection.
Institutions struggle to identify and compare various VR products, hindering effective adoption.
Existing literature provides limited guidance on selecting appropriate VR technology for medical training.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop a reproducible matrix for evaluating and comparing multiple virtual reality platforms for medical education.
To provide a quantitative framework for objectively selecting the most suitable VR technology.

Main Methods:

Development of a 10-point scoring system based on the 10 most critical factors for VR selection in medical education.
Creation of a methodological framework to quantitatively compare different VR products.
Involvement of an associate dean for simulation and technology, a director of simulation and technology, and eight medical students in matrix development.

Main Results:

A reproducible 10-point scoring matrix has been created to evaluate VR platforms.
The matrix allows for quantitative comparison of multiple VR products.
The framework aids in identifying the highest-rated immersive technology for medical education programs.

Conclusions:

The developed matrix provides an objective method for selecting VR technology in medical education.
This tool addresses the need for standardized criteria and quantitative comparison of VR products.
The framework empowers medical institutions to make informed decisions regarding VR adoption for enhanced learning experiences.
