摘要

Background

Virtual reality training can save resources and improve training efficiency. The cooperation of trauma team can shorten the treatment time and improve the treatment efficiency.

Methods

This study employed a quasi-experimental design to evaluate standardized trauma team performance scores among emergency nurses following VR training. Participants included 68 emergency department nurses from a tertiary Grade A hospital in Wuhan, China, who were divided into 17 groups (4 members per group) through convenience sampling. All teams underwent training using a virtual reality training system developed by the research team. Paired-sample t-tests were conducted to compare differences in standardized trauma team performance scores across all 17 groups between pre-intervention (March-May 2023) and post-intervention (September-November 2023) periods. Subsequently, qualitative research was implemented using semi-structured interviews to capture participants’ experiential feedback regarding the VR training system.

Results

Compared to traditional training, the use of the VR training system resulted in significantly enhanced teamwork performance among emergency nurses during simulated trauma first aid scenarios. Interview results indicated that the system’s novel format deepened professional understanding, conserved resources, increased practice opportunities, and enhanced the efficiency of trauma first aid nursing training. Moreover, it facilitated multi-role experiences, facilitating teamwork exercises.

Conclusion

The Virtual Reality training system for trauma first aid nursing teamwork enhances emergency nurses’ comprehensive trauma care capabilities, improves trauma training effectiveness, and is worthy of clinical promotion.
