Design and Development of an Integrated Virtual Reality (VR)-Based Training System for Difficult Airway Management.

For over 40 years, airway management simulation has been a cornerstone of medical training, aiming to reduce procedural risks for critically ill patients. However, existing simulation technologies often lack the versatility and realism needed to replicate the cognitive and physical challenges of complex airway management scenarios. We developed a novel Virtual Reality (VR)-based simulation system designed to enhance immersive airway management training and research.
