研究背景:本研究探討虛擬實境在醫療救護領域中的應用,以元宇宙中的虛擬實境作為核心,透過專用設備如頭盔、手柄和動作捕捉系統,讓使用者完全沉浸在高仿真的三維數位環境中,逼真的視覺和聽覺效果可給予使用者沉浸式體驗,而虛擬實境在醫療救護訓練中展現了其巨大潛力,能模擬緊急救護情況如心肺復甦術、內外科手術模擬等,訓練醫護人員應對實際工作中可能遇到的危險情況,進而提高其專業技能和應對能力,並根據使用者的表現和反饋調整培訓內容,進一步提升訓練的效果。研究方法:本研究採用文獻回顧方法,分析虛擬實境在醫療救護領域的應用效果,收集近幾年有關虛擬實境應用於醫療救護之學術論文與案例研究進行分類與篩選,聚焦於虛擬實境如何模擬緊急救護訓練、提高急救技能的方法,最後透過分析不同研究結果,總結出虛擬實境應用在醫療救護中的優勢、挑戰及未來發展趨勢,為本研究提供理論基礎和實證支持。研究結果:研究結果表示虛擬實境在醫療救護訓練中的應用具有顯著效果,從回顧的文獻可以明白使用虛擬實境進行急救訓練(心肺復甦術)能顯著提高使用者對於緊急急救的反應速度與應對能力,且虛擬實境在模擬高壓環境方面有獨特的優勢,能夠提供使用者身臨其境的體驗,這在傳統的訓練方法中是無法實現的,此外研究顯示虛擬實境能根據使用者的表現自動調整訓練難度,提供更為個人化的培訓內容以進一步提高訓練效果與減少學習時程。研究結論:虛擬實境在醫療救護領域具有顯著的應用前景,虛擬實境不僅能有效提升救護人員安全意識與應對緊急情況之能力,亦能透過模擬真實環境提供沉浸式體驗以提高訓練效率和效果,為醫療機構預防潛在的緊急救護情況並提供有力的技術支持,未來將隨著虛擬實境發展,其將成為職業安全衛生領域中不可或缺之技術,創建更安全的工作環境。
Background: This study explores the application of virtual reality in the field of paramedic services, with VR in the metaverse as the core. Through specialized equipment such as helmets, handles, and motion capture systems, users are fully immersed in highly realistic three-dimensional digital environments. The realistic visual and auditory effects provide users with an immersive experience. VR shows great potential in paramedic training, simulating emergency situations like cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and surgical procedures. It trains medical personnel to handle potential hazards they may encounter in actual work, thereby improving their professional skills and responsiveness. Training content is adjusted based on user performance and feedback to further enhance the effectiveness of the training. Methods: This study adopts a literature review method to analyze the effectiveness of VR in paramedic services. It collects and categorizes recent academic papers and case studies on the application of VR in paramedics, focusing on how VR simulates emergency training and improves first aid skills. By analyzing different study results, it summarizes the advantages, challenges, and future trends of VR in paramedic services, providing theoretical foundation and empirical support for this study. Results: The results indicate that the application of VR in paramedic training is significantly effective. The reviewed literature shows that using VR for first aid training (e.g., CPR) can significantly enhance users' emergency response speed and capability. VR has unique advantages in simulating high-pressure environments, providing users with immersive experiences that traditional training methods cannot achieve. Additionally, the study shows that VR can automatically adjust training difficulty based on user performance, offering more personalized training content to further improve training effectiveness and reduce learning time. Conclusions: VR has significant application prospects in the field of paramedic services. VR can effectively enhance the safety awareness of paramedics and their ability to handle emergencies. By simulating real environments, it provides immersive experiences to improve training efficiency and effectiveness. It offers robust technical support for medical institutions to prevent potential emergency situations. As VR technology develops, it will become an indispensable technology in the field of occupational safety and health, creating safer working environments.
