Simulation training is an important component of medical education. In this study, researchers compared the impact of traditional clinical skills training with or without interactive virtual reality (VR) on human error among medical students performing arterial blood gas collection. Findings indicate that students who participated in VR-based clinical skills training were less likely to commit errors during simulated practical exam compared to students who did not participate in VR-based training.
