Augmented reality enhances competency-based training in simulated vaginal birth: A multicenter randomized controlled trial
AR-based pre-simulation training enhances performance and competency attainment in simulated vaginal birth care. This scalable and cost-effective approach complements traditional simulation, supporting competency-based medical education while broadening access to high-quality procedural training in obstetrics.
