About this study
Official title: Successful International Training of Non-Technical Medical Crisis Skills Using Remote, Augmented Reality Simulation
This is an international, collaborative study evaluating the non-technical skills (NTS) of anesthesiology residents. The goal is to explore the capability of performing a remote, international AR simulation for the purpose of assessing NTS during a neonatal medical crisis. Simulation experts in the United States will facilitate the AR simulations with anesthesiology residents in Chile. The medical simulation itself is grounded in traditional best practices in accordance with the American Heart Association and Neonatal Resuscitation Program.

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Augmented Reality (AR)Other
AR headset - a device that the participants will wear over their head and eyes and will add holographic elements to a live view of workplace training scenario
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Mixed Reality Simulation | Experimental | Participants in the experimental arm will be introduced to workplace training modules through an Augmented Reality (AR) headset. Receives: Other: Augmented Reality (AR) |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Individual performance of non-technical skills assessed by Anaesthetist Non-Technical Skills (ANTS)
The Anaesthetist Non-Technical Skills (ANTS) tool previously published by Fletcher et al. translated in French. The ANTS scoring system uses four categories assessing task management, teamworking, situation awareness and decision-making (1 to 4 points by categories). The minimum score is 4 and the maximum 16
Measured: immediately after simulation
Secondary outcomes (3)
Individual performance of non-technical skills assessed by Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scale (BARS)
The BARS scoring system uses four categories assessing situation awareness, decision-making, communication and teamwork. The score ranges from 1 and 9 (1 = poor and 9 = excellent)
Measured: immediately after simulation
System Usability Scale (SUS) Score
The scale has 10 items. Scores ranges from 1-5 (1 = strongly disagree and 5 = strongly agree)
Measured: immediately after simulation
ISO Ergonomic scale
The scale has 6 items. Scores ranges from 1-5 (1 = strongly disagree and 5 = strongly agree)
Measured: immediately after simulation

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Augmented Reality (AR) in people with Educational Problems, run by Stanford University at 1 site in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Individual performance of non-technical skills assessed by Anaesthetist Non-Technical Skills (ANTS) (time frame: immediately after simulation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 May 2025.
