Neoreviews. 2024 Sep 1;25(9):e567-e577. doi: 10.1542/neo.25-9-e567.

ABSTRACT

In this article, we investigate the incorporation of virtual reality (VR) into Neonatal Resuscitation Program (NRP) training. We describe the potential advantages and challenges of the use of VR with NRP. We compare conventional training approaches to VR-based simulation, reviewing diverse VR platforms and their specific roles in neonatal resuscitation education. In addition, technological and ethical aspects in medical training, current research, and prospective developments in this innovative educational tool are discussed.
