Abstract | The integration of Mixed Reality (MR) technology in medical education represents a paradigm shift in how healthcare professionals acquire and refine clinical skills. This article examines the implementation and effectiveness of MR-based training across multiple medical education settings (n=156) over a 24-month period, evaluating its impact on skill acquisition, knowledge retention, and clinical competency development. Through a mixed-methods approach combining quantitative performance metrics and qualitative feedback from both learners (n=487) and instructors (n=42), our research demonstrates significant improvements in procedural accuracy (p<0.001) and decision-making capabilities (37.8% increase) compared to traditional training methods. MR-enhanced training scenarios, particularly in surgical simulation and diagnostic procedures, showed reduced learning curves (mean reduction: 42.3%) and increased learner confidence (84.6% positive response rate). While implementation challenges including infrastructure costs (average $175,000 per facility) and technical integration barriers were identified, the long-term educational benefits outweighed initial investments, with a 68% reduction in training-related expenses over a three-year period. The findings establish a comprehensive framework for MR integration in medical curricula, demonstrating its potential to transform healthcare education through immersive, risk-free training environments that effectively bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical clinical skills. |
