    This review identifies key concepts for designing immersive virtual reality (IVR) simulations in healthcare education. It offers a framework to guide educators in creating effective IVR learning experiences.

    Area of Science:

    • Healthcare Education
    • Medical Simulation
    • Virtual Reality

    Background:

    • Immersive virtual reality (IVR) simulation is increasingly utilized in healthcare education.
    • A lack of comprehensive literature exists to guide the effective design of IVR simulations.
    • Educators require evidence-based guidance for developing impactful IVR learning tools.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To identify and explore key concepts and evidence types for designing IVR simulations.
    • To establish a framework for guiding IVR simulation design in healthcare education.
    • To synthesize current literature on IVR simulation design principles.

    Main Methods:

    • A systematic literature search was conducted in March 2023 and March 2024.
    • Databases searched included CINAHL, Medline, ERIC, and Scopus.

    Published on: July 28, 2022

  • A "Population, Context, and Concept" framework guided article selection for healthcare education and IVR simulation design.
  • Main Results:

    • A total of 28 eligible articles were identified across the two search periods.
    • Three major themes emerged: rationale for IVR use, content design and modification, and simulation development.
    • Interactions between these themes were identified, forming a cohesive framework.

    Conclusions:

    • The identified themes and their interrelations provide a framework for educators designing IVR simulations.
    • This framework addresses the current paucity of literature guiding effective IVR simulation design.
    • The findings support the development of evidence-based IVR educational tools for healthcare professionals.
