“…Although the use of VR and AR has been shown to be particularly useful for surgical education and training, [28][29][30] there are only a few studies in the literature that evaluate its application in patient education. Pandrangi et al 31 investigated the use of VR in patient education of abdominal aortic aneurysms; they found that 89% of participants agreed or strongly agreed that they felt better informed about their care, and 84% of patients agreed or strongly agreed that they felt more engaged in their health care.…”

BACKGROUND: Interactive technologies are increasingly being used for patient education. Augmented reality (AR) is the technology of superimposing digital content on the reality that the user observes. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate a brand new, commercial prototype of a 360° AR visualization platform (360 ARVP) to enhance patient education for neurosurgical patients. METHODS: This pilot study was a single-center, single-provider study that took place in the clinic setting of the senior author. Patients were given the opportunity to use the 360 ARVP (Surgical Theater) concurrently with the neurosurgeon. All patients completed a survey on their experience with the 360 ARVP immediately after use. RESULTS: A total of 24 patients participated in the study. All patients (19 [79.2%] strongly agreed and 5 [20.8%] agreed) reported that using the 360 ARVP system helped improve understanding of their medical condition. The total percentage of patients who either agreed or strongly agreed that experiencing the 360 ARVP helped improve their comfort levels and that they felt included in decisions about their treatment was 95.8%. When asked to rate their level of understanding of their treatment plans on a 0 to 10 scale, the difference in means for the patients' ratings before and after the use of 360 ARVP was statistically significant (P < .0017) CONCLUSION: This pilot study demonstrates that AR can be used as an adjunctive tool for patient education. Patients found that the 360 ARVP increased their understanding of their medical conditions and improved their comfort level with the proposed treatments.

“…Genel olarak, cerrahi eğitimin tüm seviyelerinde hedef yetkin klinik uygulamaya ulaşmaktır. Bununla birlikte, teknolojik ilerlemeler, tıbbi bakım için gelen erişim, kalite ve güvenliğe dair talepler ve gelişen bir yetkinlik anlayışı, cerrahi eğitimdeki mevcut durum ve eğilimlere katkıda bulunan önemli ve birbiriyle bağlantılı itici güçler olmuştur [95].…”

“…Örneğin, 2020'de yapılan bir anket, yanıt veren eğitim programlarının %97'sinin cerrahi eğitiminde kapsamlı sanal konferansları benimsediğini ortaya koymuştur [127]. Bununla birlikte, uygulamalı eğitim olanaklarının kaybı ve stajyerlerin fiziksel ve duygusal esenliğine yönelik karmaşık güçlükler de dahil olmak üzere diğer zorluklar karşısında mevcut teknolojilerin yaygın oluşu tek başına kolay bir geçişi garanti etmemiştir [95].…”

Allowing us to visit places we have never set foot before and to experience them as if we were there, virtual reality is a new medium with unique characteristics compared to its predecessors with its main features such as its ability to manipulate perceptions of time and space, the interaction options it provides, enabling to host many participants at the same time, and empowering the user to direct the narrative flow of the experience. It is clear that interest in virtual reality is high and will continue to increase. Innovative uses of technology can provide significant benefits in today's populations, especially for the Generation Z, who closely follow technological developments and can adopt them quickly. Education and medicine are among the major fields where virtual reality has led to significant transformations in recent years. In this review article, the applications of virtual reality in the fields of education and medicine are examined within the framework of scientific research. In the light of this review, the experiences gained in practice, the challenges encountered, and recommendations to overcome these challenges were given and predictions regarding the future place of virtual reality were discussed together with the effects of the new normal that took shape with the COVID-19 pandemic.
