Uvod: Razširjena resničnost ima potencial za številne uporabe v zdravstvu. Prevladuje področje izobraževanja in usposabljanja, a se tehnologije po pandemiji nalezljive bolezni SARS-CoV-2 razmeroma hitro razvijajo in odpirajo nove načine usposabljanja, obravnave in zdravljenja. Namen: Namen diplomskega dela je pregledati in predstaviti področje razširjene resničnosti in obstoječe aplikacije, ki se uporabljajo v zdravstvu. Poleg tega želimo predstaviti obstoječe aplikacije razširjene resničnosti, ki so namenjene zdravstvenim delavcem, in aplikacije, ki jih v procesu obravnave uporabljajo pacienti. Metode dela: V diplomskem delu smo uporabili deskriptivno metodo dela. Pri iskanju smo smo omejili na literaturo, ki je bila izdana med letom 2016 in julijem 2023. Literatura je bila iskana v angleškem in slovenskem jeziku s ključnimi besedami VR, XR, MR, AR, healthcare/zdravstvo, patients/pacienti, kirurgija/surgery, training/ usposabljanje, izobraževanje/education, medicina/medicine, navidezna resničnost/virtual reality, razširjena resničnost/extended reality, obogatena resničnost/augmented reality, mešana resničnost/mixed reality, XR app/XR aplikacija. Iskali smo v bibliografskih podatkovnih zbirkah Medline in ScienceDirect, uporabili pa smo tudi iskalnike po bibliografskih zapisih Google Scholar, PubMed in Cobiss. S pomočjo iskalnika Google smo iskali po spletu obstoječe aplikacije razširjene resničnosti. V delo smo vključili 45 aplikacij in 54 virov literature. Rezultati: Razširjena resničnost koristno dopolnjuje zdravstvo na področjih izobraževanja in usposabljanja, diagnostike, operativnih posegov, zdravljenja kronične bolečine, zdravljenja duševnih bolezni in izvajanja fizioterapije. Skupno smo pregledali 45 aplikacij, od tega jih 26 ponuja navidezno, 7 mešano in 14 obogateno resničnost. Za uporabo potrebujemo pri navidezni resničnosti naglavni zaslon in osebni računalnik, pri obogateni resničnosti pametno napravo ali naglavni zaslon in pri mešani resničnosti naglavni zaslon ali pametna očala. V zdravstveni negi je razširjena uporaba aplikacije SimX za navidezno resničnost, aplikacije HoloAnatomy za mešano resničnost in aplikacije Accuvein za obogateno resničnost. Vseeno pa razširjena resničnost postavlja več odprtih vprašanj, med drugim o varnosti, morebitnih tveganjih, dosegljivosti in stroških. Razprava in zaključek: Ukrepi za obvladovanje epidemije nalezljive bolezni SARS-CoV-2 so spodbudili uvajanje razširjene resničnosti v izobraževanje in usposabljanje v zdravstvu, kar posledično pomeni manj napak pri delu, možnost kontinuiranega učenja ter nadgradnjo znanja zaposlenih. Izobraževalne ustanove so se hitro odzvale, medtem ko ostala področja za uvedbo novih tehnologij potrebujejo dodatne raziskave in klinične študije za dokazovanje učinkovitosti in varnosti uporabe tehnologij razširjene resničnosti.

• Title: Extended reality in healthcare : diploma work

Abstract

Introduction: Extended reality has the potential for many applications in healthcare. Education and training dominate the field, but in the wake of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, technologies are evolving relatively rapidly and opening up new ways of training, treatment and care. Purpose: The aim of this thesis is to review and present the field of augmented reality and existing applications used in healthcare. In addition, we want to present the existing augmented reality applications aimed at healthcare professionals and the applications used by patients in the treatment process. Methods: In this thesis we have used the descriptive method. We limited our search to literature published from 2016 to July 2023. The literature was searched in English and Slovenian with the keywords VR, XR, MR, AR, healthcare, patients, surgery, training, education, medicine, virtual reality, extended reality, augmented reality, mixed reality, XR app/XR app. We searched the Medline and ScienceDirect bibliographic databases and also used Google Scholar, PubMed and Cobiss bibliographic record search engines. We searched the web for existing XR applications using Google search. 45 applications and 54 literature sources were included in the work. Results: Extended reality is a useful complement to healthcare in the areas of education and training, diagnostics, surgery, chronic pain management, mental health treatment and physiotherapy. A total of 45 applications were reviewed, of which 26 offer virtual reality, 7 mixed reality and 14 augmented reality. Virtual reality requires a head-mounted display and a PC, augmented reality a smart device or head-mounted display and mixed reality a head-mounted display or smart glasses. In healthcare, the SimX virtual reality app, the HoloAnatomy mixed reality app and the Accuvein augmented reality app are widely used. However, extended reality raises several open questions, including safety, potential risks, accessibility and cost. Discussion and conclusion: The SARS-CoV-2 epidemic control measures have stimulated the introduction of augmented reality in healthcare education and training, resulting in fewer errors at work, continuous learning opportunities and upgrading of staff knowledge. Educational institutions have been quick to respond, while other areas need further research and clinical studies to prove the effectiveness and safety of augmented reality technologies.
