About this study
Official title: Remote Augmented Reality Versus Traditional In-person Resuscitation Assessment: an International Noninferiority Randomized Controlled Trial
This is a non-inferiority, international, controlled trial that aims to evaluate the progression of physicians and residents through an Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) clinical simulated scenario. The study's primary objective is to compare the performance outcomes between two groups: participants in the traditional in-person simulation and those immersed in the Augmented Reality (AR) scenario
- Conditions
- Educational Problems
- Being tested
- Augmented Reality simulation, In Person simulation

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Augmented Reality simulationBehavioural
Augmented simulation of medical crisis scenarios
In Person simulationBehavioural
In Person simulation of medical crisis scenarios
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Experimental: Augmented Reality Enhanced Simulation (Treatment group) | Experimental | Participants will experience augmented simulations with a holographic mixed-reality setting based on different workplace scenarios such as medical crisis via Augmented Reality (AR) headset. Receives: Behavioral: Augmented Reality simulation |
| Traditional In Situ Simulation (Control group) | Active comparator | Participants will experience in-person simulations of different workplace scenarios such as medical error and workplace harassment Receives: Behavioral: In Person simulation |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Evaluation of Technical Skill (TS) and Non Technical Skill (NTS) Performance
Measured with Instrument for the evaluation of advanced life support performance. The instrument consists of 26 items, which are rated on a scale from +2 to -2. A total assessment score of performance is given based on a scale from 0 to 10 (0=poor, 10=excellent) at the end of the instrument.
Measured: immediately after simulation
Secondary outcomes (3)
Reassessment of Non Technical Skill (NTS) with Behaviorally Anchored Rating Scale (BARS)
Measured with individual 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
Evaluation of the AR system's usability
Measured with the System Usability Scale (SUS). The scale has 10 items. Scores ranges from 1-5 (1 = strongly disagree and 5 = strongly agree)
Measured: immediately after simulation
Evaluation of the AR system's ergonomics
Measured with the ISO 9241-400 Assessment of human-ergonomic factors. 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 simulation and In Person simulation 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 4 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 23 Jul 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?
Evaluation of Technical Skill (TS) and Non Technical Skill (NTS) Performance (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 23 Jul 2025.
