About this trial

Many medical procedures are done with the aid of ultrasound imaging, but they remain difficult to learn and perform. This study will use augmented reality technology for making these procedures potentially more intuitive, easier, more precise, and safer.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Employees of the institution over 18 years.

Volunteers participants who provide oral consent.

For expert group, participants who have been trained to perform and are comfortable with point-of-care ultrasound procedures (e.g., residents, fellows, attendings, vascular access PAs/NPs).

Disqualifiers

Any previous experience or training using the current version of the HoloUS app on the HoloLens.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Task completion time

This outcome measure examines if the use of augmented reality leads to faster procedure.

Time frame
The total time from when the needle first punctured the surface of the phantom to when fluid was successfully aspirated into the syringe, or 10 minutes, whichever occurred first

Secondary outcomes

1

Number of attempts

Number of times the user needed to successfully withdraw fluid from the vessel.

Time frame
From when the needle first punctured the surface of the phantom to when fluid was successfully aspirated into the syringe, or 10 minutes, whichever occurred first.
2

Number of head adjustments

Number of times the user moved or turned their head from its baseline position at the start of the procedure until task completion.

Time frame
From when the needle first punctured the surface of the phantom to when fluid was successfully aspirated into the syringe, or 10 minutes, whichever occurred first.
