An Edge AI-based AR System for Hand Hygiene Training in Undergraduates of Health Related Disciplines

An AI-based AR System for Hand Hygiene Training in Undergraduates of Health Related Disciplines: a Randomized Controlled Trial


Sponsor

The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

Enrollment

240 participants

Start Date

Jun 25, 2024

Study Type

INTERVENTIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The goal of this study is to design and test an innovative education tool for hand hygiene. The main aims are: 1. develop a prototype of the AI-empowered AR system for hand hygiene training and assessment in undergraduates of health-related disciplines; 2. conduct a non-inferiority randomized controlled trial (RCT) to test the effectiveness of this AI-based AR training system on knowledge and practice of hand hygiene in students of health related disciplines; 3. evaluate the effects of the AI-based AR training system and collect feedbacks from participants. Participants will be randomly assigned into the two intervention: Group A (AI-based AR training system) and Group B (Hand scanner and Video training). Pre- and post-intervention assessment will be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the program and individual components.


Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria1

Interventions

BEHAVIORALAI-based AR training system

Participants will use the AI-empowered AR training system to get individualized assessments of their hand wash performance. They will not be informed about the hand scanner results.

BEHAVIORALHand scanner and Video training

Participants will use an existing education program that has been demonstrated effective in our previous study (unpublished). In brief, the participants will be informed about their hand scanner results during the first HW attempt. They will also watch a training video about the 7 steps of hand washing.
