Immersive virtual reality versus simulated patients for communication skills training

Doe J, et al. · BMC Medical Education · 2024

Communication skills are commonly taught with simulated patients, which is resource-intensive. We randomised 96 students to an immersive VR scenario or an SP encounter and crossed over after two weeks. Non-inferiority of VR was shown.

Database search management

All review work starts with diligent literature search. Develop and track your database search strings in Vernier Review.

Deterministic deduplication

Based on your search results, Vernier Review performs intelligent deduplication based on DOI, PMID, or fuzzy title, author and year matching.

Blinded screening process

At least two reviewers or reviewer teams are needed for blinded screening. Vernier Review queues conflicts for a third reviewer to resolve. In solo mode, a single reviewer can perform the entire workflow.

AI-assisted screening

Have large language models (LLMs) provide screening decision suggestions on your sources. Vernier Review will have each AI decision approved by a reviewer. The authors retain final responsibility.

PRISMA diagrams

Vernier Review generates flow diagrams, search appendices and included-studies tables directly from the project state. They can be copied and pasted straight into the manuscript.

Data export

The entire project state and history can be exported from Vernier Review. That way, authors can provide the entire workflow data as externally auditable supplemental material when publishing a manuscript.
