ABSTRACT
Purpose Resuscitation guidelines have advocated the use of virtual learning as a form of pre-course e-learning. Virtual reality (VR) has been identified to provide a method of constructive learning with instant feedback. There are increasing publications of VR use in cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) training; however, there is a dearth from the dental profession. Therefore, the aim of this exploratory study was to investigate dental students' opinions in CPR training using VR.Methods In total, 120 dental students undertook both conventional (manikin) and VR CPR training in a cross-over design. The VR scenario was in a hospital setting. Following, students completed a questionnaire evaluating their experiences.Results The majority of students (n = 88) reported that this was the first time that they had utilised VR. The experience of using VR in CPR training was rated as very good. Most students felt that the inclusion of VR in CPR training created a better learning experience and had a high learning potential. However, the hospital setting was not entirely relevant.Conclusion Dental students recommended that VR CPR training should be used as an adjunct to conventional training in dental education, but the VR scenario would benefit being a virtual dental environment.
