Abstract

Resuscitation VR is a comprehensive virtual reality (VR) training platform that offers a safe and immersive environment for junior doctors and healthcare professionals to enhance their critical care skills. With over 80 organisations adopting the platform worldwide, Resuscitation VR provides customisable training experiences tailored to meet the specific needs of hospitals. By simulating emergency scenarios, the platform serves as a cost-effective alternative to traditional manikin-based simulations, meeting the increasing demand for accessible emergency care training. The paper highlights the development of a realistic VR environment resembling clinical settings, where users make critical decisions and perform tests to stabilise patients. The platform captures performance data, offers real-time feedback, and allows progress tracking. Validation studies at renowned institutions confirm the effectiveness and acceptance of Resuscitation VR. Future plans include expanding the simulation library, supporting international remote multiuser training, building functionality to increase teaching accessibility, and ongoing evaluation studies.
