Augmented reality for training on commonly missed extremity fractures: a study on the efficacy of technology-enhanced health professions education in learning outcomes and experience
This study provides evidence supporting the integration of handheld AR as a cost-effective, interactive, and scalable learning tool for fracture detection training. The findings suggest that AR-based learning enhances diagnostic accuracy, spatial reasoning, and engagement in health professions education. Future research should explore comparative studies to assess its effectiveness against traditional learning methods.
